Here is the full quote:
"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
Thanks Allan. It becomes more important every day. I had the worst weekend I've had in a long time, and reading your comment really put a smile on my face that I didn't expect.
