Pluck beats luck every time!

  

Jack’s Winning Words 1/7/14

“A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck.”  (James A. Garfield)  There was a Garfield School in the city where I grew up.  I only knew that Garfield was a U S President.  But, now, this quote interests me.  “Pluck” means, continuing to do something, in spite of difficulty.  Our 20th Pres also said: “I’ve had many troubles, but the worst of them never came.”  Somebody had a good idea when they named that school, Garfield.    ;-)  Jack
