Persistence
by Elbert Hubbard
Genius is only the power of making continuous efforts.
The line between failure and success is so fine that we
scarcely know when we pass it....
How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time
when a little more effort,
a little more patience,
would have achieved success?
As the tide goes out, so it comes clear in....
A little more persistence,
a little more effort,
and what seemed hopless failure
may turn to glorious success.
There is no failure except in no longer trying.
There is no defeat except from within,
no really insurmountable barrier save
our own inherent weakness of purpose.
