Don't Quit.


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 do not quit.
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 go wrong that you must not quit.

Very old Poem.. my father-in-law who would be 103 this year if he was still living liked to quote that poem ... well worth repeating. I guess you could say it is a classic. And I don't know if anyone knows who wrote it.. anybody
