Jorge Luis Borges
“Whatever one man does, it is as if all men did it. For that reason, it is not unfair that one disobedience in a garden should contaminate all humanity; for that reason it is not unjust that the crucifixion of a single Jew should be sufficient to save it.”
Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings

Thomas A. Edison
“Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”
Thomas A. Edison

Herman Melville
“I try all things, I achieve what I can.”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

Winston S. Churchill
“Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”
Winston Churchill, Never Give In! The Best of Winston Churchill's Speeches

Joseph Conrad
“I don't like work--no man does--but I like what is in the work--the chance to find yourself. Your own reality--for yourself not for others--what no other man can ever know. They can only see the mere show, and never can tell what it really means.”
Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness
