From "success"
read the quotation.
"'t is clownish to insist on doing all with one's own hands, as if every man should build his own clumsy house, forge his hammer, and bake his dough; but he is to dare to do what he can do best; not others as they would direct him, but as he knows his power to be."
which best paraphrases the quotation?
a.
it is foolish to insist that clumsy people should work with their hands; instead, they should be allowed to do whatever they can do best.
b.
if a man can build his own house, forge his tools, and bake his bread, he should do so; if he cannot, no one should force him to try.
c.
rather than do things they are unqualified to do or follow others' wishes, people should work according to their talent or skillset.
d.
a person who tries to do everything without may look ridiculous, but he or she deserves admiration for having the courage to try.
