No stopping them
When a man is determined, what can stop him?
Cripple him and you have a SIR WALTER SCOTT; put him in a prison cell and you have a JOHN BUNYAN; bury him in the snows of Valley Forge and you have a GEORGE WASHINGTON. Have him born in abject poverty and you have a LINCOLN. Load him with bitter racial prejudice and you have a DISRAELI.
Afflict him with asthma until as a boy he lies choking in his father’s arms and you have a THEODORE ROOSEVELT; stab him with rheumatic pains until for years he cannot sleep without an opiate and you have a STEINMETZ; put him in a grease pit of a locomotive roundhouse and you have a WALTER CHRYSLER; make him a second fiddle in an obscure South American orchestra and you have a TOSCANINI.
—Paul SpeikerEveryone has determination in him. He just needs to let it out.
