Quotations About Persistence
page 1 page 2 These quotes are about persistence.
We must not, in trying to think about how we can
make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make.
Only those who do nothing make no mistakes.
Failure is only the opportunity to begin again,
only this time more wisely. Success is the ability to go from failure to failure
without losing your enthusiasm. To be nobody-but-yourself--in a world which is doing
its best, night and day, to make you everybody else--means to fight the hardest
battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. You
will never find time for anything. you must make it. When one door closes another one opens; but we so
often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not
see the ones which open for us. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
When a man finds no peace within himself it is
useless to seek it elsewhere. The dictionary is the only place that success comes
before work. Forward, as occasion offers. Never look round to
see whether any shall note it.. Be satisfied with success in even the smallest
matter, and think that even such a result is no trifle. Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster.
And if you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you. Patience and perseverance have a magical effect
before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish. Through perseverance many people win success out
of what seemed destined to be certain failure. Half the failures of this world arise from pulling
in one's horse as he is leaping. Do not confuse motion and progress. A rocking horse
keeps moving but does not make any progress. Still round the corner there may wait, a new road
or a secret gate. Nothing endures but change. Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run
over if you just sit there. Putting off an easy thing makes it hard, and putting
off a hard thing makes it impossible. Concentration
is the secret of strength. Go on working, freely and furiously, and you will
make progress. Certain defects are necessary for the existence
of individuality. Man must strive and, in striving, must go wrong.
Keep spiritually sound and be persistent. Persistence
is the key. Just never stop believing in your dream. The saints are the sinners who keep going. Confidence is preparation. Everything else is beyond
your control. Man cannot remake himself without suffering.
The reason why worry kills more people than work
is that more people worry than work.
