My dad always said, "You're never beat, 'till you quit"
It has become my motto, because I seem to fail quite a bit. He was given six months to live with non-Hodkin's lymphoma, but lived for several years because he was too mean to be beaten.

Also falls in line with a statement that Pres. Calvin Coolidge made in the historic past on persistence (In reply).

Persistence - Calvin Coolidge
Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence.

Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
