1.
Boys, there ain't no free lunches in this country. And don't go spending your whole life commiserating that you got the raw deals. You've got to say, I think that if I keep working at this and want it bad enough I can have it. It's called perseverance.

Richards, Mary Caroline

It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can do only a little. Do what you can.
Smith, Sydney

You have to keep plugging away. We are all growing. There is no shortcut. You have to put time into it to build an audience
John Gruber

14.
Plenty of men can do good work for a spurt and with immediate promotion in mind, but for promotion you want a man in whom good work has become a habit.
Doherty, Henry L.

15.
Never despair, keep pushing on!
Lipton, Sir Thomas

16.
To endure is greater than to dare; to tire out hostile fortune; to be daunted by no difficulty; to keep heart when all have lost it; to go through intrigue spotless; to forego even ambition when the end is gained -- who can say this is not greatness?
Thackeray, William M.

17.
Sure I am of this, that you have only to endure to conquer. You have only to persevere to save yourselves.
Churchill, Winston

Corso, Gregory

Proverb, English

Thatcher, Margaret

23.
Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game, one foot from a winning touchdown.
Perot, H. Ross

24.
You've got to say, I think that if I keep working at this and want it badly enough I can have it. It's called perseverance.
Iacocca, Lee

Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

28.
The most essential factor is persistence -- the determination never to allow your energy or enthusiasm to be dampened by the discouragement that must inevitably come.
Riley, James Whitcomb

29.
You have to persevere. You have to do it. I have insecurities. But whatever I'm insecure about I don't dissect it, but I'll go after it and say, What am I afraid of? I bet the average successful person can tell you they've failed so much more than they've had success. I've had far more failures than I've had successes. With every commercial I've gotten, there were 200 I didn't get. You have to go after what you're afraid of.
Sorbo, Kevin

30.
If I had to select one quality, one personal characteristic that I regard as being most highly correlated with success, whatever the field, I would pick the trait of persistence. Determination. The will to endure to the end, to get knocked down seventy times and get up off the floor saying, Here comes number seventy-one!
DeVos, Richard M.

31.
Bear in mind, if you are going to amount to anything, that your success does not depend upon the brilliance and the impetuosity with which you take hold, but upon the ever lasting and sanctified bull doggedness with which you hang on after you have taken hold.
Meldrum, Dr. A. B.

32.
In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced nor cried aloud: Under the bludgeoning of chance my head is bloody, but unbowed.
Henley, William Ernest

33.
Endure and persist; this pain will turn to good by and by.
Ovid

34.
Austere perseverance, hash and continuous... rarely fails of its purpose, for its silent power grows irresistible greater with time.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

35.
We can do anything we want to do if we stick to it long enough.
Keller, Helen

36.
It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired, you quit when the gorilla is tired.
Strauss, Robert

37.
