Quote by Wendell Phillips
To be as good as our fathers we must be better, imitation is not discipleship.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the idea that simply imitating or following in the footsteps of our fathers is not enough to surpass their achievements. In order to be on par with, or even surpass, their greatness, we must strive to be better versions of ourselves. It suggests that true discipleship requires personal growth, independent thinking, and innovation rather than merely replicating what has already been done. To honor and transcend the legacy of our fathers, we must surpass their accomplishments by finding our own unique path and making our own contributions to the world.
