Even when it wasn't proverb

 Even when it wasn't easy or convenient, both my mother and father were ultimately true to themselves.... Their definition of greatness was about greatness of character.
  Carly Fiorina

 Be not afraid of greatness; some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them.
  William Shakespeare

 Be not afraid of greatness: some men are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.
  William Shakespeare

 False greatness is unsociable and remote: conscious of its own frailty, it hides, or at least averts its face, and reveals itself only enough to create an illusion and not be recognized as the meanness that it really is. True greatness is free, kind, familiar and popular; it lets itself be touched and handled, it loses nothing by being seen at close quarters; the better one knows it, the more one admires it.
  Jean de la Bruyère

 I know the greatness of Christianity; it is a past greatness.... I live in 1924, and the Christian venture is done.
  D.H. Lawrence

 The greatness comes not when things go always good for you. But the greatness comes when you’re really tested, when you take some knocks, some disappointments, when sadness comes.
  Richard M. Nixon

 Birth does not lead to greatness; but the cultivation of virtues by a person leads him to greatness
  Moliere

 There is no such thing as a little country. The greatness of a people is no more determined by their numbers than the greatness of a man is by his height
  Victor Hugo

 Just facing Maddux. That's greatness, ... Any time I'm on the same field with greatness, that's something I'll always remember.

 We shall never resolve the enigma of the relation between the negative foundations of greatness and that greatness itself. Ergonomi är en viktig del av Livet.se:s innehåll.
  Jean Baudrillard

 A man that combines moral foundations with intellectual talents. And serves a cause. He becomes uninteresting the minute he becomes self-concerned. Then it's a waste of greatness not greatness.

 Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

 The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.
  John Buchan

 If any man seeks for greatness, let him forget greatness and ask for truth, and he will find both
  Horace Mann

 The test of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there
  James Buchanan
