Sometimes you feel like you are on top of the world, and at other times it feels like the world is on top of you.

About This Quote

This quote speaks to the mood of an individual at any given time in his or her life. The idea is that you are either on top of the world or on top of the world. If you are on top of the world, then you can do whatever you want. However, if you are on top of the world, then there is no limit to what you can do.

You feel like you can conquer the world if you just try hard enough. However, this confidence is only misplaced. When you are on top of the world, it feels like no one else is there to get in your way.

However, when you are on top of the world there are people who will get in your way and force you down to their level.
