About This Quote
The eagle is a bird that is known for flying high in the sky. However, an eagle will not get sucked into the jet engine of the plane it is flying on. That's because eagles are wary of being hurt by the machines they use every day. The same goes for people who do not worry about being hurt by circumstances or circumstances that are beyond their control.
