So true, how many people do you know who weren't that intelligent and yet always had all A's while the genius flunked out?

Re Press On

This is a quote, a poem which I read years ago. It may not be the original exact quote... but it is as I remembered it.

Upon the Plains of Hesitation,
Bleached the bones of countless millions
Who, upon the threshhold of victory,
Sat down to wait,
And waiting,
They died.

Shakespeare uses 'Seize the moment' in several of his plays...
