"Nothing in this world can take
the place of persistence.
Talent will not;
nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent.
Genius will not;
unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education 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."
-Calvin Coolidge
