When the Going Gets Tough...

Quotes are a tricky thing.  What may be clever to someone is considered corny or cliché to another, so forgive me if these are cheesy!  But, I found these after the last post and believe they have some concise insights to impart, such as the last one, which is my favorite.  

I never failed once. It just happened to be a 2000-step process.

— Gandhi

If you want to see something done, just tell some human beings it can't be done. Make it known that it's impossible to fly to the moon, or run 100 meters in 9.9 seconds, or solve Fermat's Last Theorem. Remind the world that no one has ever hit 62 home runs in a season or stuffed 18 people into a Volkswagen. Dangle the undoable in front of the world. Then, consider it done.
