Impossible is a word in the dictionary of fools



It was Napoleon Bonaparte, the great conqueror, who said, "Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools ". Come to think of it, there is so much truth in this quote.

So instead of shedding tears when things become too difficult, let us like Walt Disney say, "It.s kind of fun to do the impossible".

Such people won’t jump to hasty conclusions and so they normally succeed in what they do. But foolish people act hastily without proper thought. They won’t think of the consequences of their actions. They will jump to hasty conclusions and so they be unsuccessful in their endeavours. When foolish people lose the game by acting hastily, wise m
