sometimes, it is just easier to quote than write
"How long must a child try to walk before he actually does so?
Do I not have more strength than a child?
More understanding? More desire?
How long must I work to succeed before I actually do so?
A child would never ask the question, for the answer does not matter.
By persisting without exception, my outcome -my success- is assured."
- The Traveller's Gift, Andy Andrews
