I came across a quote this morning which stuck in my mind when I read it some years ago. The quote, attibuted to Calvin Coolidge,
Calvin Coolidge, 30th president of the United States:-
“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.”
