"Who? O'Neil or Drake?" "Both. Mr. O'Neil for putting me in the position of a traitor, and Drake for presuming to rewrite my stuff. I'm going to resign, and I'm going to leave Omar before Murray O'Neil comes back." "Don't be a quitter, Sis. If you throw up the job the paper will send somebody who will lie about us to suit the policy of the office.
I don't think he was quite clear enough to talk about other things." "What did he say that is, anything special?" "No; he said he was more than sorry that he wasn't going to get in the game; it was his last and he wanted to play, but, of course, it wasn't his fault, and the college wouldn't think he had thrown them down. He'd never been a quitter, he said." "No, never," said the manager.
"Dear!" she exclaimed, "I did not dream it was so fearful. One has to see to realize! You will not go down promise me you will not go down!" "Now, now, little woman," reproached Blake. "What's become of my partner?" "But baby ? If you should leave him fatherless!" "Better that than for him to have a father who is a quitter! Just wait, Sweetheart.
Before those Memoirs saw the light, not a word is anywhere to be found on a point as obscure as it is delicate. After, Bussy was delighted to repeat La Rochefoucauld, and Madame de Longueville has thus fallen into the scandalous chronicle. "La Rochefoucauld, depuis assez longtemps ayant envie de la quitter, prit cette occasion avec joie." Mad. de Nemours, p. 150.
She's no easy quitter, that young lady. Having let me in on her little affair, she seems to think it's no more'n right I should be kept posted. A day or so later she lugs in a picture of Private Mears, one of the muddy printed post-card effects such as these roadside tripod artists take of the buddy boys around the camps. "That's him," says she. "Looks kind of swell in the uniform, don't he?"
"I have all I want." "Great!" said his father. "I believe you could fight, boy, if you were forced to." In the shed they sluiced each other with pails of water, had a rub down and got into their dressing gowns. "I feel fine, now, dad, and ready for anything," said Barry, glowing with his exercise and his tub. "I was feeling like a quitter. I guess that asthma got at my nerve.
"No use at all. You couldn't outrun a steam-roller, but if you won't duck out, I've got to do my best. I'd as lief die of a gunshot-wound as starve to death in the desert." "Do you suppose we could run away?" "Could we!" Glass propped himself eagerly upon one elbow. "Leave it to me." "No!" Wally resumed rubbing himself down. "I can't leave without looking like a quitter.
There's no chance for us here." Tug, who was feeling rather muggy, only growled: "Not on your life! I had rather be a yellow dog than a quitter." Then he relapsed into a silence that reminded History of Achilles in his tent, though he was ungently told to keep still when he tried to suggest the similarity.
Evidently the anxiety over Darcy was beginning to tell on her. The old detective shook his head slowly. "Oh, I suppose I can't back out now," he sighed. "I've gone too far. It would look like quitting, and I never was a quitter!" He straightened up to his soldierly height. "Besides," he went on, "Kedge would only mix matters up now. He wouldn't know what to do, even if I told him.
Apparently satisfied at last with its sharpness he laid it down on the step and turned to our friend. "You done well, son," he remarked at length, thoughtfully removing his pipe. "I'm pleased with you. I was afraid at one time just after you took the stripe when some of 'em was ragging you, as you would turn out a quitter. But you got guts.
