Susan, I can't stand it. I CAN'T. That's why I want to end it all. It would be so simple such an easy way out." "Yes, 'twould for quitters. Quitters always take easy ways out. But you ain't no quitter, Keith Burton. Besides, 't wouldn't end it. You know that. 'Twould jest be shuttin' the door of this room an' openin' the one to the next.
Women of America, every one of you that helps to foster the spirit of cowardice in your particular man or men is helping to make a coward. It's the cowards and the quitters and the slackers and dodgers that need this war more than the patriotic ones who are willing to buckle on and go! "Don't be a buttonhole patriot! A government that is good enough to live under is good enough to fight under!"
But the cad was very thick-skinned; he made not the slightest show of resentment at the opprobrious epithet. So we got up and walked over to him. "You miserable shrimp" said Captain E as he stood over the fellow with hands a-twitching to take hold of him. "You mean, skulking coward, to talk like that of men who have come over to fight in the place of wretched gutter-snipes and quitters like you."
The temptation to dogmatize here is strong, for the witness can testify that he has seen enviable success crown many a fiction writer who, apparently, possessed small native talent for story telling, and who won his laurels through sheer pluck and persistence. One of these pluggers declares he blesses the rejection slip because it "eliminates so many quitters."

"I guess she tried," Louise could not refrain from interrupting, for the memory of Kitty's throw of the paste board box was still vivid. "Yes, she tried, and she has told me how she plagued you, but accordin' to Kitty you wouldn't quit." "Not exactly quitters," ventured Cleo.
Lorraine stooped over him, and her eyes were almost as terrible as were Brit's. "Let it pop. We aren't quitters, are we, dad? I'm going to stay with you." Then she saw tears spilling over Brit's eyelids and left the room hurriedly, fighting back a storm of weeping. She herself could not mourn for Frank with any sense of great personal loss, but it was different with her dad.
You've won my money, and now, being pikers and quitters, you don't propose to give me a chance to win it back. You know Wyndham's going to put it all over you Saturday, and you're shivering in your shoes. I don't blame you for being frightened, as you haven't one chance in a hundred to take that game.
When I look at you and your work for this thankless horde I feel something of a useless brute." "Hold up there, now, don't you abuse my parishioners. They are a perfectly good lot if left alone. They are awfully grateful, and, yes, in many ways they are a good lot." "Yes, a jolly lot of quitters they are. They have quit you dead." Brown winced. "Let us up on that spot, French," he said.
Life up here is a hard game, kid, but we're no quitters! This is just one of the rough places in the long, long trail. "And, say, kid just man to man I want you always to remember that she needs you and some day she may need you bad. This St. Ledger may be all right, but " "St. Ledger!"
