Tenacity

A L O H A From Honolulu!

There is no chance,
no destiny, no fate, that
can circumvent or hinder or
control the firm resolve
of a determined soul. Ella Wheeler Wilcox



Those tenacious of purpose
in a rightful cause are not
shaken from firm resolve by the
frenzy of fellow citizens clamoring
for what is wrong, or by the
tyrant's threatening countenance.
Horace, 23 BC



It is not enough
that we do our best;
sometimes we must do
what is required. Winston S. Churchill


Patience and tenacity
are worth more than
twice their weight
of cleverness.
Thomas Henry Huxley

Love You,
Pixie & Cloudia

Some inspiring quotes (as usual). Thank you.

Teresa said...

Great quotes today, although I am not sure that Pixie agrees that SHE must do what is required. She is a regal cat after all. Requirements are for minions, humans, and dogs... ;)

Barwitzki said...

Fascinating quotes... thanks... and I relax in nature and the forest...
I had a wonderful tour in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains... many greetings to you.
Happy week to you.

Cloudia said...

Thanks each of you

To do what is required! In deed.

Belly rubs are required for Pixie.

Beautiful sky images.
Pixie looks surprised.
Take care, have a wonderful week!

Looking surprised is also an art, and Pixie has mastered it perfectly. Well done Pixie.

Aloha! Namaste 🙏

Some timely quotes, Cloudia.

Jenn Jilks said...

Oooh, good quotes, again.
I had two clients this week. One was fine, the other was terribly complicated. That quote hit home, as I had to do what is required.

Sandee said...

Love the photography, especially Pixie and love the quotes.

Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.

Lots of sucker branches on the tree. Hopefully, the parks people will cut those off.

Bill said...

Love the quotes and photos. A great was to start off the new week. Thank you!

I like the mural and the dog photo.

Mae Travels said...

beautiful skies!

Lisca said...

Great quotes and beautiful pictures. The name Waikiki sounds familiar. Is it a beach or a town (or both?)
Pixie is just waiting to be tickled.
Happy T-Day,
Hugs,
Lisca

I was SURE I left you a comment on this post Monday night. I loved the guy with his gardening cart. A perfect entry for T Tuesday, also.

A wonderful post. I love all of the quotes and I really like the guy drinking from the can. He was thirsty. LOL Pixie looks like you startled her. Have a very nice evening.
