WORTH READING 19 Nov 2004

Never Quit!



Players win, players lose, players prepare, players practise, players get
hurt but players get up. No matter what the outcome is, players play.

After years of hard work, Thomas Carlyl finished the manuscript of his book
The French Revolution and gave it to a friend to read. The friend?s
housekeeper mistook the manuscript for trash and threw into the fire. When
she got the news, Carlyl?s wife couldn?t hold back her tears. His friend
stood trembling, and Carlyl himself was speechless. Finally, with a display
of remarkable courage and restraint he said, ?Accidents like these happen.?

Although, outwardly Carlyl appeared courageous, he was devastated. He was
unsure if he could continue with the project. He couldn?t sleep all night.
The next morning he resolved to start working on his book again. No matter
what, he just could not give up. Two years later, he had recreated and
finished his great work, The French Revolution, which remains to this day a
living testimony to his indomitable spirit.
