Will HenryThe wishbone will never replace the backbone
About This Quote
A wishbone is a type of bone found in the leg of some mammals and birds, such as cows and chickens. It is used as a food source for their young. The wishbone can be broken into two parts, with the two pieces still connected by a cord of tissue called the ligamentum. These two pieces of bone look like they are connected to each other, but they are not. The idea behind this quote is that those who want to make progress in life will not be limited by those who want to keep them back.
