Endurance

Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
~James 1:2-3~

The credit [of a continuing free country] belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who knows the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy cause; his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.
~Teddy Roosevelt~

"Whenever any form of government is destructive of these ends [life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness] it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government in such form as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness.”
~Declaration of Independence, 1776~


“A lie has speed, but truth has endurance.”
~Edgar J. Mohn~

But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
~Matthew 24~
