Even after a bad harvest there must be sowing.

Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.

It is perseverance that leads to great accomplishments.

In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins, not through strength but by perseverance.

For thine own purpose, thou hast sent The strife and the discouragement!

The waters wear the stones: thou washeth away the things which grow out of the dust of the earth; and thou destroyest the hope of man.
