Hey, anyone know the author of this quote?
“Strive for the impossible to be the best possible”
Mark says
An item that is impossible is only so at the time of stating it is impossible. Tomorrow the characteristics around the impossibility can change, and suddenly, it is possible. Someone mentioned that the world freeezing is impossible, yet we have had 2 or 3 recorded ice agaes where the world did freeze. Some have said living forever is not possible, yet with science we know that our cells never actually die, they just become something else, food for plants, animals and other. The more we look into a subject, the more we find reasons why something that was impossible, can become possible. It takes time, study and sometimes a mistake to find the solution. For some, faith will lead them to a discovery, for some, belief in an idea or themselves. For others, it will be someone believing in them, to push them to find the answers to everything they are striving to achieve.

James Johnson says
This whole website is filled with nonsense comments. I know that you’re trying to inspire people to be inventive, take on challenges, and not unduly limit themselves. However, the statement that nothing is impossible is just plain false. Some things are logically impossible. That means that they cannot occur in any universe. Something either is or it is not; it cannot be both. Second, some things are physically impossible. They might be possible in some other universe but, if they define the physical laws of this universe, then they simply cannot occur. When I say “the laws,” I mean the actual laws of the universe, whatever they might be, given that scientists might not have correctly determined all of the laws of this universe. Third, some things are technologically impossible. Some things that are possible today were not possible in the past because the appropriate technology had not been developed. Finally, some things are conditionally impossible; that is, given certain contraints that we have chosen, it is impossible to do certain things. For instance, I cannot go to your wedding in New York on Wednesday if I;m going to be in Chicago the entire week. People thoughtlessly toss out “well, anything’s possible” as if it were some sort of truism, when it’s actually always a false statement.
