nothing is impossible?

why do people keep insisting in saying "nothing is impossible" when they know "a lot of things are possible" is more realistic? Does it make them look or sound more successful, accomplished or macho? I can at least point out 10 trillion things that are not possible. For example, it is impossible for a man, unaided, to go to the moon. It is impossible for a man, unaided, to lift a one thousand ton weight above his head for 24 hours. It is also impossible for someone to be at 2 thousand places at the same time. The list just goes on and on and on...........

    Nothing can be proven to be impossible. The events you mentioned just haven't happened YET.

    "A lot of things are possible" may be more realistic, but it isn't as catchy and is way more negative. (Sounds like: failing is also possible.)

    People have issues. Many things are possible and many more are in possible. When one is on drugs they try to fly. They think they can. Yeah, that will never happen. People watch to many movies. The in possible was meant to stay that way. We are not god.
