"Will you be quiet?" said LeGrand, and there was that in his voice which seemed to cow the blonde woman. "Minnie," went on LeGrand Blossom, "its a hard thing for a man to talk about a woman, but sometimes it has to be done. And it's doubly hard when it's about a woman a man once cared for. But I'm going to take my medicine, and she's got to take hers." "I'm no quitter!
"They say the old man Grant is nearly a millionaire, and he's getting lonely for her, and is pretty near ready to forgive her and Fred and take them back. Wouldn't it be awful if the old man should come up here and find she'd gone with Rance Belmont?" Mrs. Berry looked anxiously around the kitchen as if searching for the lost one. "Oh, don't worry," declared Mrs. Corbett; "she ain't a quitter.
If Willa Murdaugh was a self-pitying weakling, Gentleman Geoff's Billie was not, and she would see the game through! Because of all that the old name had meant she would not be a quitter, though her own happiness be forever lost. What was her happiness? she demanded wrathfully of herself. A side-bet, nothing more! She was out for bigger stakes than mere happiness, and she was playing to win.
"Either stop it or else retire yourself. I am not what they call a quitter in this country, and I do not propose at the very height of my career to give up a business which I have struggled for years to establish." "That is all very well, Henriette," said I. "But the pitcher that goes to the bat too often strikes out at last."
Teeny-bits saw that the freckle-faced boy was in fact no larger than he, but he did not seem any the more inclined to accept the call to combat. After waiting a moment, Bassett said in a taunting voice: "Friends, let me introduce you to Teeny-bits, the quitter." The words had an effect that the Western Whirlwind scarcely expected.
Jérome a été bête de la quitter." "Ah," said Bonstetten, "si elle n'est pas reine de Westphalie, elle est au moins reine des coeurs."
I sent ye to tell her that I loved her; have I ever sent ye to tell her that I've quit? I should think you'd know, by this time, that I'm na quitter. Love her! Why, I love her till I can see her standin' plain before me, when I know she's a mile away. Love her! Why, I can smell her any place I am, sweeter than any flower I ever held to my face. Love her! Till the day I dee I'll love her.
In the language of the prize ring, the pugilist who lies down while he can yet stand and see is called a "quitter." It would be harsh and unjust to apply to all suicides this opprobrious name; but there can be little doubt, I think, that the majority of them are weaklings who give up and lie down while they still have a fighting chance.
Phil and Jackson caught up with old Dan a mile or so beyond the point where the road to the Lazy B left the main traveled trail. "The other boys hitting the dust for the ranch?" asked Jackson. "Yep." "Yeager's got it right. They won't find Harrison there. He'll go through with his play. Chad's no quitter." Dan nodded.
"Some dog, Baldy o' Golconda, ain't he, Mart?" was Jones's exultant comment as they passed Barclay, who stood regarding the heroes with ill-concealed contempt. "Some accident!" retorted Mart. "There'll be a fine day," belligerently, "when 'Scotty' Allan'll find out that there dog's a fake, a reg'lar quitter.
