"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."

I suppose this struck a chord with me because not only is it a good quote, but it is also inspiring to me to “Press On!” Hopefully, it isn’t inspiring because I struggle with it.
