Quote by Robert Burns
Firmness in enduring and exertion is a character I always wish to

Firmness in enduring and exertion is a character I always wish to possess. I have always despised the whining yelp of complaint and cowardly resolve. – Robert Burns

Other quotes by Robert Burns

The great Creator to revere
Must sure become the creature;
But still the preaching cant forbear,
And evn the rigid feature:
Yet neer with wits profane to range
Be complaisance extended;An atheist laughs a poor exchange
For deity offended. – Robert Burns
