Genius.

My mom writes me notes a lot; words of wisdom and other such pearls.

This fella's post reminded me of a quote she had slipped me once,

"Nothing in the world will take away persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than an unsuccessful man 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


I thought I'd share it.
