Perseverance

For those times when you feel knocked down, small, or defeated, these are little reminders written by those wiser than us:

Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other. Walter Elliot

Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained.  Marie Curie

"If you stand up and be counted, from time to time you may get yourself knocked down. But remember this: A man flattened by an opponent can get up again. A man flattened by conformity stays down for good."  Thomas J. Watson, Jr.
