When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, … When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest, if you must but don't you quit. … 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.
Author unknown, "Don't Quit". Reported in Hazel Felleman, The Best Loved Poems of the American People (1936, reprinted 1957), p. 113–14. | ||
