An Interesting Ouote about Greatness...
 

I was thinking today about a quote (I belive made by Shakespeare) It was a quote about Greatness being thrust upon you, etc.

Can anyone remember the exact quote?

It is similar in nature to the Biblical quote which is,

"Some men are born unto honor and some are born unto dishonor"

Just thought it would be of interest to raise this in light of striving for success!

But be not afraid of greatness; some men are born great, some achieve
greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

Thanks for that Pete

I can see now that Shakespeare's quote is not so much related to the Biblical quote, which seems to be saying that we are destined either to live an honored life or a dishonored life!
