Edgar Guest Quotes
I'm not the man to say that failure's sweet,Nor tell a chap to laugh when things go wrong;I know it hurts to have to take defeatAn' no one likes to lose before a throng;It isn't very pleasant not to winWhen you have done the very best you could;But if you're down, get up an' buckle in-A lickin' often does a fellow good.
