I know this thread spent itself out some days ago now. But I thought I'd share this quote anyway. I found it on (of all unlikely places) my son's Facebook page listed under his "favorite quotes." And the originator is (of all unlikely people) Calvin Coolidge. Here goes . . . 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. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. - Calvin Coolidge Press on . . . I find it deeply embarrassing to admit I have fallen into the category of folks who have depended on the former rather than the later too often in life, and positively galling (personally) to think that my son has seen this (in me) and recognized it as a failure as well. Oh well . . . press on anyway.
