Take all His works, in their fitness an' goodness, an' you'll see He never 'lowed for a scrub an' a quitter anywhere. An' so when He gave me this tip on Ben Butler's speed I done the rest. "God gives us the tips of life, but He expects us to make them into the dead cinches.
As foh me, I'm ti'ed; life ain't wuth the effo't." Maxwell regarded him. "You don't look like a quitter," he said, thoughtfully. The boy's face blazed again, but he kept his temper. "To quit means to give somethin' up," he said, doggedly. "I ain't givin' anythin' up. I 'ain't got anythin' to give up.
"I knew he couldn't stay away!" "Who said he was a quitter?" From among the many glasses offered Andy selected a goblet of ginger ale. He looked about the tables, and saw Dunk at one, regarding him with a rather uncertain eye. "There he is!" cried Andy's roommate, waving his hand. "That's him. My old college chum! I'm his protector! I always look after him.
"Come on, Gert, don't be a quitter. Don't you want to see her face when she knows that Slews has been all a fluke? Come on, Gert, I'll wake up the kid if I try to dump him in alone." "Well, for just a minute. I I don't want to butt in on your and and her fun."
It wasn't long that I remembered her, but you were right again I liked that life. I'd got used to it. The other kind seemed impossible to me I've been a quitter and a shirker just what you called me but I'm going back home to take it all up again, or if you would rather, I'll stay here and work mines in these mountains, or help reclaim the desert if you'll marry me, Pearl."
Then, some day, when you and I were lying on deck, you'd look at me and think of me against your will I don't say it wouldn't be against your will you'd think of me as a quitter. And you wouldn't like me quite as well as you do now. Eh? Be honest." Lorimer was silent for a minute.
"You are home early," said Mr. Langham, as Alice stood above him pulling at her gloves. "I thought you said you were going on to some dance." "I was tired," his daughter answered. "Well, when I'm out," commented Hope, "I won't come home at eleven o'clock. Alice always was a quitter." "A what?" asked the older sister. "Tell us what you had for dinner," said Hope.
"Bud an' Lefty, 'n' say, I guess they can handle you all right, eh? 'N' say, come on, let's cop a sneak before any one butts in d' fire escape for ours, eh?" "Sure!" said Spike, climbing through the window. "Oh, there ain't nobody goin' t' call Hermy Chesterton's brother a quitter." "You bet there ain't!" grinned Larry, "come on, Kid!" "Why, Mr. Geoffrey, what you settin' here in the dark for?"
Again he was with his father in the little home cottage. How dear it had been to him then! How dear to him, today! Once more he felt the strong grip of his father's hand and heard his father's voice: "Good night, boy. We don't know what is before us, defeat, loss, suffering, that part is not in our hands altogether, but the shame of the quitter never need and never shall be ours."
Then he stopped short, as the shell burst this time far to the left of the stalled ambulance. "Gosh!" he exclaimed. "You've got me rattled, too. Here! I'll go along to Mother Gervaise with you. Some of the fellows may be there and I can get help. Come on." "Oh, Charlie!" murmured the girl. "I'm afraid for you." "Trying to make me a quitter, are you?" he demanded.
