Don't Quit


This is a poem sort of thing which is stuck on my fridge. It makes me smile everytime i read it, so i thought i'd post it here.

When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don't you quit
Life is queer with it's twists and turns
As everyone of us sometimes learns
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won, had he stuck it out
Don't give up though the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow
Success is failure turned inside out -
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

I'm quite a fan of:

"Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

Not my favourite person, but a hell of an orator.
