We can do noble acts without ruling the earth and sea

Summary

This quote emphasizes that one does not need to hold power or authority over large domains in order to engage in noble acts. Being in a position of power or having control over vast territories is not a prerequisite for doing good deeds or making a positive impact in the world. It implies that ordinary individuals, with their everyday actions and choices, have the potential to enact noble deeds and make a difference in the lives of others, irrespective of their influence or control over the external world.
