What Is Greatness?

What does it mean to be great?

Greatness is a transitory experience. It is never consistent. Doing what must be done, what is required of you to do in the face of hardship and difficulty, this is already greatness. Being strong is not greatness, but the right use of strength, that is greatness. To endure, to tire out hostile fortune; to be daunted by no difficulty; to keep heart when all have lost it – this is greatness!

There are countless ways of attaining greatness, but any road to reaching one’s maximum potential must be built on a bedrock of respect for the individual, a commitment to excellence, and a rejection of mediocrity. - Buck Rodgers

It is the nature of man to rise to greatness if greatness is expected of him. - John Steinbeck

Many have had their greatness made for them by their enemies. - Baltasar Gracian

Man’s greatness lies in his power of thought. - Blaise Pascal

We all carry the seeds of greatness within us, but we need an image as a point of focus in order that they may sprout. - Epictetus
