- Endurance is the crowning quality,
- And patience all the passion of great hearts.
JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL, Columbus
Unless you have courage, a courage that keeps you going, always going, no matter what happens, there is no certainty of success. It is really an endurance race.
HENRY FORD, Theosophist Magazine, Feb. 1930
Sorrow and silence are strong, and patient endurance is godlike.
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW, Evangeline
If there's magic in boxing, it's the magic of fighting battles beyond endurance, beyond cracked ribs, ruptured kidneys and detached retinas. It's the magic of risking everything for a dream that nobody sees but you.
PAUL HAGGIS, Million Dollar Baby
Heroism is endurance for one moment more.
GEORGE KENNAN, "The Problems of Suicide," McClure's Magazine, 1908
He that endureth to the end shall be saved.
