Answer 5

Answer 6

Answer 7

I'm sorry, but this is "novel," a little.

"Drive your cart and waggon over the bones of the dead.

The Road of Excess leads to the Palace of Wisdom."

         -- William Blake, "The Marriage of Heaven and h**l"

"If a Fool would persevere in his Folly, he would become wise."

             -- Ibid.

What Blake is saying here, I think, is that even if you're not exactly sure of what you're doing, sometimes you need to push ahead with it with the faith that you'll learn through trial and error.  

A less novel idea about perseverance comes from an old Civil Rights song sung in the 1960s:

Paul and Silas went to jail

Got nobody to get their bail

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Come about midnight, there's a shout

Jail door opened, and they walked out

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.

Hold on,

Hold on,

Keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.
