No one who has come to true greatness has not felt in some degree that his life belongs to the people, and what God has given them he gives it for mankind.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
No man has come to true greatness who has not felt that his life belongs to his race, and that which God gives to him, He gives him for mankind.
Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. People are just people, and all people have faults and shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness.
Our greatness has always come from people who expect nothing and take nothing for granted - folks who work hard for what they have, then reach back and help others after them.
The true greatness of a person, in my view, is evident in the way he or she treats those with whom courtesy and kindness are not required.
No man is truly great who is great only in his lifetime. The test of greatness is the page of history.
It is the nature of all greatness not to be exact.
To achieve greatness one should live as if they will never die.
No one can be great, or good, or happy except through the inward efforts of themselves.
The truest greatness lies in being kind, the truest wisdom in a happy mind.
All greatness of character is dependent on individuality. The man who has no other existence than that which he partakes in common with all around him, will never have any other than an existence of mediocrity.
