I pledge to never quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road I am trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and debts are high,
And I want to smile, but have to sigh,
When care is pressing me down a bit
I’ll rest if I must, but will never ever quit
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint to the clouds of doubts,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems far.
So stick to the task when you’re hardest hit,
It’s when things seem the worst, that I must not quit
Until I exceed my limits
