About This Quote
The language we use is extremely powerful. It is the frame through which we perceive and describe ourselves and our picture of the world. This quote by Malcolm Gladwell in his book Outliers makes us realize that language shapes our way of thinking and makes us think in certain ways. Language has the power to make us believe in something even when it isn’t real, like in the case of miracles. When someone tells you something is impossible, you shouldn’t believe them; you should always try your best to make it possible.
