About this Quote

This quote by Phillips Brooks is highlighting the significance of concentrating on the important things that are crucial to us in life. He is suggesting that we must focus on and narrow down our goals and aspirations, rather than attempting to do whatever. By localizing and defining our lives, we can focus our energy and resources on the things that are most meaningful to us. This will help us to attain our objectives and take advantage of our lives. It is important to bear in mind that we can not do everything, and that it is better to focus on a few things and do them well, rather than spreading ourselves too thin and not accomplishing anything. By emphasizing our lives and localizing and defining our goals, we can make the most of our lives and accomplish our dreams.
