About This Quote

This quote is a reminder to never give up. The strength of the water that once trembled from the weight of the stone still continues to quiver long after it has been released. Yet, a stone dropped into a pond does not continue quivering as it sinks to the bottom. It is because there was a time when it was not in motion.
