Answer 14

"When things go wrong as they sometimes will, when the road you're trudging seems all uphill, when funds are low and 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 don't you quit.

Life is strange with its twists and turns as every one of us sometimes learns, and many a failure turns about when they might have won had they stick it out.

Don't give up though the pace seems slow, you may succeed with another blow.

Success is a failure turned inside out, God's (or whoever you believe in) hidden gift in the clouds of doubt.

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 seem worst that you must not quit."

Not a quotation but a poem ........  LIFE IS SWEET AND SO ARE YOU.

peace baby
