Paulo CoelhoBecause when everyone dreams, but only a few realize their dreams, that makes cowards of us all.
About This Quote
It is the most valuable thing in the world to have a dream and to pursue it with all your might. That can be a valuable trait, if you only have one dream. But when everyone dreams, but only a few realize their dreams, that makes cowards of us all. Everyone is afraid if they dream big enough they will fail. It’s a self-defeating attitude that hinders progress and limits our potential.
