2. 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;
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 human race.”
• Calvin Coolidge,
30th president of the United States
• Reflection; his quote means that nothing will ever be
better than persistence like talent and genius.
3. Herbert Kaufman
• “Failure is only postponed success as long as
courage coaches ambition. The habit of
persistence is the habit of victory.”
• Herbert
Kaufman
• Reflection; this statement means that you
will succeed when courage takes over
ambition. It also means that you will have
victory when you show persistence.
4. Confucius
• “To see what is right and not do it is want if courage.”
• Confucius
• Reflection; This is true because let’s say you do not
see what is right then you are not considered a
coward because you were not aware of it but on the
other hand if you know and you see what is right but
you turn the other cheek that just means you lack of
courage because you do not have the courage to do
what you think is right and not what everyone else is
doing.
