Two. . .
. . . from Churchill (and more)
"Sure I am of this, that you have only to endure to conquer."
"Never, never, never, never give up."
Winston Churchill
"Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal; While others, on the contrary, obtain a victory by exerting, at the last moment, more vigorous efforts than ever before."
Herodotus
"If I had to select one quality, one personal characteristic that I regard as being most highly correlated with success, whatever the field, I would pick the trait of persistence. Determination. The will to endure to the end, to get knocked down seventy times and get up off the floor saying, Here comes number seventy-one!"
Richard M. DeVos
"Great works are performed not by strength, but by perseverance."
Samuel Johnson
"Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after another."
Walter Elliott
. . . and OHO perseveres in its quest for perfection in performance of
Slough of Despond
written by John P. Graboski and David Reeve
(OHO rehearsal recording-
Jay Graboski, David Reeve and Ray Jozwiak are OHO)
Do note the sound of Jay's 'new El Capistan delay pedal basting the riffs w/ extra boss-ness'
