If a task is once begun, never leave it until it's done. Be the labor, great or small, do it well or not at all. - Unknown

I have no idea who the original author was but my 5th grade teacher shared it. I've never forgotten it.
If you like humorous science fiction, I invite you to read Highway to the Stars: The Beginning by B.E. Wilson

"I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." -Thomas Jefferson
Love what you do, and do what you love. Don't listen to anyone else who tells you not to do it. -Ray Bradbury

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. -Robert A. Heinlein
