Sanskrit Subhashitas 66

66. सज्जना

प्रारभ्यते न खलु विघ्नभयेन नीचै: प्रारभ्य विघ्नविहतां विरमन्ति मध्या:।
विघ्नै: पुन: पुनरपि प्रतिहन्यमाना: प्रारभ्य चोत्तमजना न परित्यजन्ति॥

Basemen do not undertake any work apprehending obstacle. Mediocres make a start, but cease working when they encounter hindrances. The men of excellence, however, after commencing a job do not give up despite recurrence of impediments.
