Persistence is a virtue, as Calvin Coolidge said:

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 alone are omnipotent.

The slogan Press On! has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
