"History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats."

“Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”

–Calvin Coolidge

Compassion?

 

What is compassion?

Is it 'just love'?

One can choose to love somebody

but if one can even have love for Hitler or Stalin or Genghis Khan

then that is compassion!

Or so I have been told!

Compassion would, then, be harder to give then 'just love'!
