"When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn."
- Harriet Beecher Stowe
"They can conquer who believe they can."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
"No matter what happens to you, if you can draw strength from God and the people you love, nothing can ever defeat you."
- Reba McEntire
"I know God will not give me anything I cannot handle. I just wish He didn't trust me so much."
- Mother Teresa
"Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after another."
- Walter Elliot
"Never give up. Hold on to the ledge, whether it is physical or mental. If you are holding on by sheer willpower, determination and stubbornness, that is enough. Stretch yourself until your fingers bleed, your muscles scream and your breath comes in ragged gasps - and then calm yourself, relax, stretch, take a deep breath. If you can hold on one moment longer, and then one second more, you'll find that the moments become seconds, the seconds add to minutes, and the minutes total to hours, until you've held on long enough to catch your second wind.
Then, with careful confidence, climb upwards until you reach the top."
- Nik Rapelje
