The Glance for August 20, 2010: Calvin Coolidge puts it together on perseverance.

Working hard today on not becoming an educated derelict.

"Press on: Nothing in the world can take the place of perseverance. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."

Calvin Coolidge
