The legacy I leave will be unimaginably enhanced by the legacies I received. Therefore, I must be wise enough to embrace the history of those who have gone before me so that I can shape the future of those who will go ahead of me.

About This Quote

The definition of legacy is a collection of things received from one’s life that can be passed on to future generations. The idea is that people who have been able to leave a legacy have lived lives of greatness. In other words, their legacies will live on after them. The idea becomes even more powerful when you consider that someone who has lived a great life is one who has done something for others. Some people have been so successful that they have been able to leave a great legacy.
