AGING - Quotes from the papers of Tom "Grandpa" Glennon
“Do not resent growing old many are denied the privilege.”
“Old age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill.”
PERSISTENCE - Quotes from the papers of Tom "Grandpa" Glennon
“A psychologist says that the two qualities which can breed success are persistence and concentration = = try it in prayer”
“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. 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. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”
“Sow a Thought and you will
REAP AN ACT;
Sow and Act and you will
REAP A HABIT;
Sow a Habit and you will
REAP A CHARACTER;
Sow a Character and you will
REAP A DESTINY;”
“Ideas and thoughts precede action. Ideas have consequences.”
“Without constancy there is neither love, friendship, nor virtue in the world.” --Addison
“The courtship of failure leads to success.”
“Do not resent growing old many are denied the privilege.”
“Old age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill.”
