Perseverance

Charles Spurgeon said, "By perseverance the snail reached the ark." That is probably one of my favorite quotes on perseverance. I have posted some of my favorite quotes in this blog to encourage myself and any who read this blog. Enjoy!

Fall seven times, stand up eight. ~Japanese Proverb

He conquers who endures. ~Persius

Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after another.
~Walter Elliott, The Spiritual Life


Life is not about how fast you run or how high you climb but how well you bounce.
~Vivian Komori

"when a rose stands alone,
thriving where no others thrive,
a rare bouquet of one
still strong, still alive....
and I smile..."

One may go a long way after one is tired. ~French Proverb

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.
