About This Quote

Henry D. Thoreau once said, “We forget our greatness,When we measure ourselves against the world.” He was conveying a feeling of self-importance that comes from thinking one is not as great as others. We all have greatness in us and it is the ability to recognize that greatness and tap into it that makes a person great.
