Persistence

"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." -  Calvin Coolidge

Better !

Better is Possible.
It does not take genius.
It takes diligence. It takes moral clarity. It takes ingenuity.
And above all,
It takes a willingness to try.

- Atul Gawande
