On Practice and Persistence

by Dan on October 15th, 2007

Here’s a quote by violinist Pablo de Sarasate that I originally saw in an article on how age affects entrepreneurship:

For 37 years I’ve practiced 14 hours a day, and now they call me a genius.

This goes right along with Edison’s comment about “one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.”
