Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.

Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful

people with talent.

Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

Education will not; the world is full of educated failures.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

- Calvin Coolidge

He was defeated for state legislator in '32.

He tried another business in '33. It failed.

His fiancée died in '35.

In '43 he ran for congress and was defeated.

He tried again in '48 and was defeated again.

He tried running for the Senate in '55. He lost.

In 1860, the man who signed his name A. Lincoln, was elected the

The difference between history's boldest accomplishments and its

most staggering failures is often, simply, the diligent will to

persevere.

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody,

and Nobody.

There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that

Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.

Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that

Everybody wouldn't do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what

Anybody could have done
