According to a book published by ArtScroll the source of the quote, which is actually "Ein davar ha-omeid bifnei haratzon," is the Chida (Rav Chaim Joseph David Azulai).
Here's the link for where I found the reference: https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:T89liayx60QJ:artscroll.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/six-constant-mitzvos.pdf+&hl=en&gl=il&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEESgRNLIV_Fq-lf3goF3v0KH1iaY5E-t95Y9YdOyXUy7kG-l9ruXAY9qjoV8VEKRpIC0280D7XmpOu5PMEUw_QylcMYYICSFq8xsHHPdYryoj-tv0ma61lpeYUi4tvSsg3vTmbOkf&sig=AHIEtbTe5Qb8EB-hr6Uz3BpoyrwGuf-vYQ Be well, Libi Astaire www.libiastaire.weebly.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Donald Splansky To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2013 5:26 AM Subject: [ha-Safran] source of quote Dear Sir/Madam, I am looking for the source of the rabbinic quote: "Ein l'kha davar ha-omeid bifnei haratzon" Nothing can stand in the way of will(power).
