Perseverance: some quotes

"A lot of successful people are risk-takers. Unless you are willing to do that, to have a go, to fail miserably, and have another go, success won't happen."
Phillip Adams

'Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Act as if it were impossible to fail"
Dorothea Brandt

"Perseverance is a great element of success. If you knock long enough and loudly enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody eventually."
Henry Longfellow

"Thousands of people have talent. I may as well congratulate you for having eyes in your head. The one and only thing that counts is: Do you have staying power?"
Noel Coward

"Steady perseverance alone will tame your mind, and it is only through a tame mind that you can experience God."
Sathya Sai Baba

"There is no royal road to anything. One thing at a time, and all things in succession. That which grows slowly endures."
Joshua Holland
