~With ordinary talent and extraordinary perseverance, all things are attainable~ Thomas Foxwell Buxton
~No one succeeds without effort... Those who succeed owe their success to perseverance~ Ramana Maharshi
~Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other~ Walter Elliot
~Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
~Perseverance is a positive, active characteristic. It is not idly, passively waiting and hoping for some good thing to happen. It gives us hope by helping us realize that the righteous suffer no failure except in giving up and no longer trying. We must never give up, regardless of temptations, frustrations, disappointments, or discouragements~ Joseph P. Wirthlin
