The Road to Greatness

The quote by Francis Bacon probably means that in life you have to rise in order to achieve what you want. Like you have to take a path that will lead you to something good but in that path you might find obstacles that you will be able to go through. Everyone in life has a path, either that they chose or is chosen for them. Once you got to the end of the path (top of staircase) is when you got to where you wanted and are now older and wiser. Once you are already old, you will probably remember the most memorable things in life that helped you through life.
