“Press on. Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not. Nothing is more common than unsuccessful people without talent. Genius will not. Unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not. The world is full of educated derelicts. Patience and determination alone are omnipotent“
