"By persevering over all obstacles and distractions, one my unfailingly arrive at his chosen goal or destination."—Christopher Columbus
I read this quote today when reading a daily planner that the university puts out every year and just thought it was great. Because, of course, Christopher Columbus never once arrived at his chosen goal or destination. Christopher Columbus's chosen goal was the Far East, and with all his perseverance, he missed it by several thousand miles.
Who says there's no such thing as irony in real life?
