Any man who selects a goal in life which can be fully acheived has already defined his own limitations.
Cavett Robert Any person who selects a goal in life which can be fully achieved, has already defined his own limitations.

Bryant True art selects and paraphrases, but seldom gives a verbatim translation. Thomas Bailey Aldrich |
