"On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit"
- Ayrton Senna
About this Quote
In this quote, Ayrton Senna is recommending that our understanding of our own restrictions is often affected by external elements. He suggests that on any offered day, in a specific situation, we may think that we have reached our optimum potential or ability. However, Senna challenges us to question whether this viewed limit is truly our real potential or if it is simply an outcome of the situations we find ourselves in. He encourages us to push beyond these self-imposed limitations and strive for success, advising us that our capacity is not repaired and can be broadened with determination and perseverance. Ultimately, Senna's words work as a pointer to never ever undervalue our own abilities and to constantly pursue more.
"My sorrow, when she's here with me, thinks these dark days of autumn rain are beautiful as days can be; she loves the bare, the withered tree; she walks the sodden pasture lane"
"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time"
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"
