… a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than believe in the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact; It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration; It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing
