About This Quote

In a world where everyone tends to compare their lives to those of their friends and others, this statement seems to have a lot of truth. Not only can you measure your own life based on how it compares to the lives of those around you, but you can also measure it by how your life affects others. If you have a negative effect on only a few people, then that’s a good thing because that impact will be felt by those few people for a long time. However, if you do have an effect on many people, then that’s something truly great.
