FAVORITE QUOTATION:
“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.” |
