About this Quote
This quote by Douglas Horton is a pointer that wishes alone can not bring us what we want in life. Desires are abstract and also can not be captured like fish or ridden like horses. The quote is a tip that we have to take action to make our dreams come to life. We should put in the initiative and also hard work to make our desires a reality. It is not nearly enough to just wish for something, we have to take the essential steps to make it happen. The quote is additionally a tip that we must not take our long for granted. We need to be happy of what we have and aim to make our desires come to life. We must not be contented and expect our desires to find true without any effort. We have to take the effort and also place in the effort to make our desires come to life.
"Give these Indians little farms, survey them, let them put fences around them, let them have their own horses, cows, sheep, things that they can call their own, and it will do away with tribal Indians"
