"Find a way or make one."
From the script of the TV movie "Shackleton". The quote refers to the men's determination to survive their doomed Antarctic crossing in 1914. I think the quote fits much of life's difficulties (at least in the Western countries), no excuses, none of the I cannot do this or that BS. "Find a way to do it or make a way to do it." If your determined enough and work hard enough you can accomplish most anything, it usually comes down to desire and not giving up when things are stacked against you.
Here is a link to the 2 part A&E movie if your interested. Shackleton was made in 2002 with a wonderful performance by Kenneth Branagh and others. I love how the expeditions photographer Frank Hurley plays a central roll and is a bit of a hero in it all. It is because of his great work that much of the Shackleton Expedition is remembered, the power of photographs and film.
