About This Quote

This is the miracle of all miracles. When life sacrifices itself to become something greater, it is awakening to its potential and rising in power. That is true magic. You can never get more out of life than you put into it.

It’s like a muscle that must be worked to become bigger and stronger. Take a look at someone who has accomplished a great deal in his or her lifetime and you will see this truth in action.
