“Nothing in the world
can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not;
nothing is more common
than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not;
unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education alone will not;
the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
The slogan "press on" has solved
and always will solve
the problems of the human race.”
- John Calvin Coolidge
Only one thing lacking in this quote…
No matter how strong or how weak,
man needs, and has always needed,
faith, trust, and the will of God.
