Inspiration and Motivation

The best quotes are snippets of wisdom  targeted at addressing the misunderstood realities of our imperfect world. These are some of my favorite quotes –all said by some of the greatest innovators to ever live – that inspire and motivate me each and every day.

Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

Calvin Coolidge
