fbhjr”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

I don't know about the persistence thing - I sure was persistent with a number of girls in my youth and that got me nowhere. But, my wife was fairly persistent with me, hmm, about a 50/50 chance with persistence, I think. Determination is about the same way, in my experience.
