"Stick to your task 'til it sticks to you;
Beginners are many, but enders are few.
Honor, power, place and praise
Will always come to the one who stays.

Stick to your task 'til it sticks to you;
Bend at it, sweat at it, smile at it, too;
For out of the bend and the sweat and the smile
Will come life's victories after a while."

i had to interpret this quote recently. I hate interpreting poetry like this on the fly. ew. What's worse is there was a bunch of Shel Silverstein read that day too. Oh kill me now.
(i guess I should take the advice of the quote here, huh!)
