Don't Quit by Wapapod(m): 12:33pm On Nov 05, 2016
DON'T QUIT
When Things go wrong,as they sometimes will,
When the road you' re trudging seems all tp hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When case is pressing you down a bit,
Rest,IF you must - BUT DON'T YOU QUIT

Life is queer with its 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 might succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down.
How close he was to the golden crown.

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 afar;
So stick to the fight when you' re hardest hit-
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't QUIT
