Quotes on Perseverance
It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.
Albert Einstein
We can do anything we want to if we stick to it long enough.
Helen Keller
Fall seven times. Stand up eight.
Japanese proverb
Only he who keeps his eye fixed on the far horizon will find his right road.
Dag Hammarskjold
Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
Thomas Edison
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination are omnipotent.
Calvin Coolidge
I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost more than 300 games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. . . . And that is why I succeed.
Michael Jordan
Champions keep playing until they get it right.
Billie Jean King
All great masters are chiefly distinguished by the power of adding a second, a third, and perhaps a fourth step in a continuous line. Many a man had taken the first step. With every additional step you enhance immensely the value of you first.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else.
Brian Tracy
The rewards for those who persevere far exceed the pain that must precede the victory.
Ted W. Engstrom
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
Harriet Beecher Stowe
It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired, you quit when the gorilla is tired.
Robert Strauss
A sound body, a brilliant mind, a cultural background, a huge amount of money, a wonderful education -- none of these guarantee success.
