Buyuk olmak için hic kimseye iltifat etmeyeceksin, Bundan sonra da sana Buyuk derlerse ,
Kimseyi aldatmayacaksin.
Ulke için gercek amac ne ise onu gorecek,
O hedefe yuruyeceksin.
Herkes senin aleyhinde bulunacaktir.
Herkes seni yolundan cevirmeye calisacaktir;
Fakat sen buna karsi direneceksin.
Onune sonsuz engeller yigilacaktir.
Kendini buyuk degil, kucuk , zayif, aracsiz,
Hic sayarak, kimseden yardim gelmeyecegine
Inanarak engelleri asacaksin .
Soyleyenlere guleceksin.
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk
Greatness
means that you won’t try and please anyone, that you won’t
deceive anyone, that you will try to discern the true ideal for the
country, that you will strive for it,
that everyone will turn against you and will try to make change your course.
You will have no means to resist. They will pile up endless obstacles in your path
You will surmount them, knowing all the time that you are not
great, but little, weak, resourceless, a mere nothing, and that no
one will come to your aid.
And if after that they call you great, you’ll laugh at them
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk
