Greatness

Some men are born great; others have greatness thrust upon them.

Teddy Roosevelt from "Night at the Museum"

 

 

I am not sure if it matters if an individual was born with talent or if they had greatness thrust upon them. I think what matters most is the choices he or she makes with his or her greatness. If a person can make choices that affect people in a positive way, than I think the greatness that person carries speaks for itself. Teddy Roosevelt, in “Night at the Museum” was technically wax incarnate, but his wisdom was no less effective.
