Great Quotes Persistence
Great Quotes: Persistence
Never, never, never give up!
- GEORGE S. PATTON
I do not think there is any other quality so essential to success of any kind as the quality of perseverance. It overcomes almost everything, even nature.
- JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER
What this power is I cannot say; all I know is that it exists and it becomes available only when a man is in that state of mind in which he knows exactly what he wants and is fully determined not to quit until he finds it.
- ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL
Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
- CONFUCIUS
Whether you think you can or think you can't – you are right.
- HENRY FORD
History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats.
- B.C. FORBES
Success... seems to be connected with action. Successful men keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit.
- CONRAD HILTON
Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.
- WILLIAM FEATHER
Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit.
- NAPOLEON HILL
Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game one foot from a winning touchdown.
- H. ROSS PEROT
All great achievements require time.
- DAVID JOSEPH SCHWARTZ
It's the constant and determined effort that breaks down all resistance, sweeps away all obstacles.
- CLAUDE M. BRISTOL
Success is failure turned inside out, The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far. So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, It's when things seem worse, That you must not quit.
- UNKNOWN
Few things are impossible to diligence and skill…. Great works are performed not by strength, but perseverance.
- SAMUEL JOHNSON
The rewards for those who persevere far exceed the pain that must precede the victory.
- TED ENGSTROM
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
- RUDYARD KIPLING
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.
- CALVIN COOLIDGE
