A Thought for Thursday

Something to think about from the pen of of the great reporter and photographer Jacob Riis (1849-1914):

"When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before."
