Poetry and memory
Poetry has an amazing capacity to stay in your memory. I just read a few similar lines and it reminded me of this exact famous one I loved during university/college days - I dont have to google or brush up, it is there as fresh as ever and as motivating as ever:
The heights by great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upwards in the night.
The rhythm of Wordsworth,oops - no Longfellow, is amazing!
