About This Quote

When you have a strong sense of self-importance, you often feel as though you must be capable of doing things on your own. In order to be powerful, you often believe that you have to prove yourself first. When it comes to matters of the heart, though, this is a mistake. You can’t do everything on your own. Instead, you must open up and trust in something beyond yourself—something you cannot prove for certain.
