Quotes to ponder

You have set yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles. Remember, no effort that we make to attain something beautiful is ever lost. ~Helen Keller

The difficulties and struggles of today are but the price we must pay for the accomplishments and victories of tomorrow. ~William J.H. Boetcker
