About this Quote

Milton Babbitt's quote suggests that the limits of what we can achieve are not necessarily restricted by our physical abilities, however by our own understanding. He implies that our own minds can be the best obstacle to our progress. We can be limited by our own beliefs and presumptions of what is possible. We can be held back by our own doubts and fears. We can be limited by our own absence of imagination and creativity. Babbitt's quote encourages us to push past our own mental limits and strive for higher heights. He motivates us to think outside package and to challenge our own beliefs and presumptions. He motivates us to check out new possibilities and to expand our horizons. By doing so, we can open our real potential and achieve more than we ever believed possible.
