“When things go wrong, as they sometimes will; When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill; When the funds are low and debts are high; And You want to smile but You have to sigh. When all is pressing You down a bit – Rest if You must, but don’t You quit. Success is failure turned inside out; The silver tint on the clouds of doubt; And You can never tell how close You are; It may be near when it seems far. So stick to the fight when You’re hardest hit – It’s when things go wrong that You must not quit.”
-John Greeneleaf Whittier.
