Inspirational quotes¶
- “The Romans “made Fortune sirname to Fortitude,” for fortitude is that alchemy that turns all things to good fortune.” ―Thoreau
- “Something that irritates you and won’t let you go. That’s the anguish of it. Do this book, or die. You have to go through that. Talent is insignificant. I know a lot of talented ruins. Beyond talent lie all the usual words: discipline, love, luck, but most of all, endurance.”―James Baldwin
