- Calvin Coolidge -
“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... Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan PRESS ON! has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”
