MOTTO

No matter how confident you are in your abilities. In the end, what it comes
down to is the power to believe. The power to believe that you will succeed. If
you have that, the result will be better.

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is
always to try just one more time.
(Thomas A. Edison)
