DON’T QUIT
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the depts. 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 its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learn,
And many A failure turns about
When he might have won and stuck it out;
Don’t give up, though the pace seems slow-
You might succeed with another blow…
Success is failure turned inside out-
The silver tint of the cloud of doubt-
And you can never tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems a far;
So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit-
It’s when things get worst that you mustn’t quit.
