Blog quote #1078...
"The man who is anybody, and who does anything, is surely going to be criticized, vilified, and misunderstood. This is part of the penalty for greatness, and every man understands too, that it is no proof of greatness." -Elbert Hubbard-

If you've never heard of Elbert Hubbard, he is the author of some of life's most interesting quotes. We suggest you look into him. So much wisdom and truthful words come from this man's mind.
We interpret this statement as basically--It's easy to not be criticized, just sit in the stands, follow the crowds, take no risks, and flow along the river of life. But then, what fun would that be?
As someone once said, "Don't be afraid to go out on a limb occasionally- for that is where the ripest fruit lies." Hmm...
That's my view...what say you?
