Don't Quit
When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh
Rest if you must, but don't you quit
Life is queer with its twits and turns
As every one of us sometimes learns
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up through 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.
- Edgar A. Guest
