The person who wins may have been counted out several times, but didn't hear the referee.
Best Quotes about Perseverance
Many strokes overthrow the tallest oaks.
Lyly, John
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.
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
Consider the postage stamp, my son. It secures success through its ability to stick to one thing till it gets there.
Billings, Josh
I've always made a total effort, even when the odds seemed entirely against me. I never quit trying; I never felt that I didn't have a chance to win.
Palmer, Arnold
Don't worry about genius. Don't worry about being clever. Trust to hard work, perseverance and determination. And the best motto for a long march is: Don't grumble. Plug on!
Treves, Sir Thomas
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
To persevere, trusting in what hopes he has, is courage in a man.
Euripides
No greater thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen.
Epictetus
Many drops make a bucket, many buckets make a pond, many ponds make a lake, and many lakes make an ocean.
Ross, Percy
A lowly virtue whereby mediocrity achieves a glorious success.
Bierce, Ambrose
If at first you don't succeed, keep on sucking till you do succeed.
Howard, Curly
God Almighty hates a quitter.
Fessenden, Samuel
It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.
Einstein, Albert
The majority of men meet with failure because of their lack of persistence in creating new plans to take the place of those which fail.
Hill, Napoleon
By perseverance the snail reached the ark.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon
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
Your biggest break can come from never quitting. Being at the right place at the right time can only happen when you keep moving toward the next opportunity.
Pine, Arthur
We can do anything we want to do if we stick to it long enough.
Keller, Helen
It helps, I think, to consider ourselves on a very long journey: the main thing is to keep to the faith, to endure, to help each other when we stumble or tire, to weep and press on.
Richards, Mary Caroline
Persevere in virtue and diligence.
Livy, Titus
A man is not finished when he's defeated; he's finished when he quits.
Nixon, Richard M.
It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can do only a little. Do what you can.
Smith, Sydney
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.
Edison, Thomas A.
Lots of people limit their possibilities by giving up easily. Never tell yourself this is too much for me. It's no use. I can't go on. If you do you're licked, and by your own thinking too. Keep believing and keep on keeping on.
Peale, Norman Vincent
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.
A jug fills drop by drop.
Buddha
They, that unnamed they, they've knocked me down but I got up. I always get up -- and I swear when I went down quite often I took the fall; nothing moves a mountain but itself. They, I've long ago named them me.
Corso, Gregory
It's always too soon to quit.
Scoates, David T.
By gnawing through a dike, even a rat may drown a nation.
Burke, Edmund
Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after another.
Elliott, Walter
History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats.
Forbes, B. C.
Perseverance is failing 19 times and succeeding the 20th.
Andrews, Julie
It's when things get rough and you don't quit that success comes.
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
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.
Iacocca, Lee
We can always redeem the man who aspires and strives.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
When you put your hand to the plow, you can't put it down until you get to the end of the row.
Paul, Alice
You just keep pushing. You just keep pushing. I made every mistake that could be made. But I just kept pushing.
Mcpherson, Rene
Few things are impossible to diligence and skill. Great works are performed not by strength, but perseverance.
Samuel Johnson
I've got a woman's ability to stick to a job and get on with it when everyone else walks off and leaves it.
Thatcher, Margaret
How long should you try? Until.
Rohn, Jim
Victory is always possible for the person who refuses to stop fighting.
Hill, Napoleon
When the going gets tough, the tough hang in there.
Do not quit! Hundreds of times I have watched people throw in the towel at the one-yard line while someone else comes along and makes a fortune by just going that extra yard.
Cossman, E. Joseph
The difference between perseverance and obstinacy is that one often comes from a strong will, and the other from a strong won't.
Beecher, Henry Ward
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
One of the most difficult things everyone has to learn is that for your entire life you must keep fighting and adjusting if you hope to survive. No matter who you are or what your position is you must keep fighting for whatever it is you desire to achieve.
Allen, George
There's only one way you can fail, and that's to quit.
Hays, Brian
If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
