Quote by Christian Nevell Bovee

We trifle when we assign limits to our desires, since nature hath set none.

We trifle when we assign limits to our desires, since nature

Summary

This quote suggests that when we set limits to our desires, we are only wasting our time and energy. It argues that nature has not imposed any boundaries on what we can desire or achieve, and therefore we should not restrict ourselves by considering certain desires as unattainable. By not placing limitations on our aspirations, we can transcend societal norms and expectations, and explore our full potential. In essence, it urges us to dream big and break free from the self-imposed shackles that constrain our desires.
