About This Quote

In a word, this quote means that sometimes you have to "play the part" to become the part. In other words, if you want to be a doctor, a lawyer or a teacher, you have to act like a doctor, lawyer or teacher. You can't pretend to be something you're not. This means that if you want to be a doctor, for example, you have to go to medical school and pass all of your tests. But if you want to be a doctor in real life, then you actually have to get into the medical profession and get your hands dirty!
