Summary
This quote, taken from C.S. Lewis' "The Chronicles of Narnia," highlights the humility required for true leadership. As Aslan, the wise lion, welcomes the young Prince Caspian, he poses a question about his readiness for the Kingship. Caspian expresses doubt and a sense of unworthiness due to his age. Aslan's response illustrates that recognizing one's limitations is a sign of wisdom and maturity. True leaders understand that self-sufficiency can lead to arrogance and ultimately hinder growth, while humility opens the door to learning, transformation, and fulfilling one's potential.
