Genes don't carry dreams, not hereditarily that is, determination does.

I don't have a college degree, I don't come from money or from an academic family, I didn't have any resourceful acquaintance to speak of, yet today I am at the forefront of humankind's struggle for inclusion, justice and equality. All I had was a vision and an unending persistence. Each failure made me even more stubborn towards my vision - each failure gave me an inexplicable bliss that carried me further.

Achievement is 60 percent determination, 40 percent action

Society is built by determination, not designation.

A mind that is determined for a purpose never runs out of options.

Determination delivers the path

Fortune is slave to the determined and master to the weakling.
