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 alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”
President Calvin Coolidge
30th president of the united states (1872-1933)

The Greeks knew: that intelligence and
Skill can only function at the peak of
Their capacity when the body is healthy
And strong.”
