I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles. Christopher Reeve Courage and perseverance have a magical talisman, before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish into air. John Quincy Adams If you wish success in life, make perseverance your close friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother and hope your guardian genius. Joseph Addison Victory belongs to the most persevering.[/COLOR] Napoleon Bonaparte Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together, yield themselves up when taken little by little.[/I] Plutarch Few things are impossible to diligence and skill. Great works are performed not by strength, but perseverance. Samuel Johnson |
