Read sonnet 65 by william shakespeare:

since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea,
but sad mortality o'er-sways their power,
how with this rage shall beauty hold a plea,
whose action is no stronger than a flower?
o, how shall summer's honey breath hold out
against the wreckful siege of battering days,
when rocks impregnable are not so stout,
nor gates of steel so strong, but time decays?
o fearful meditation! where, alack,
shall time's best jewel from time's chest lie hid?
or what strong hand can hold his swift foot back?
or who his spoil of beauty can forbid?
o! none, unless this miracle have might,
that in black ink my love may still shine bright.

answer: i would say he was very determined and persistent in overcoming obstacles.

explanation:   "the magician of menlo park" as he was called, liked to tell an incident that happened when he was 8 years old and came back home crying after attending school for three months because his teacher called him "sterile and unproductive". from nowadays perspective, we can say that thomas alva edison was one of the most persistent and determined man that has ever existed. when edison was 14, he contracted scarlet fever. the effect of the fever, as well as a blow to the head by an angry train conductor, caused edison to become completely deaf in his left ear, and 80-percent deaf in the other. so as you can see he had to struggle to not so many minor issues but he always succeeded.

yea and yea x.x i love them =^-^=
