If at First

If at First

The salesman says, “But I knocked on the door, and they slammed it in my face.”

The athlete said, “I ran that race once, and fell down.  Never again.”

The speaker said, “I had a sure-fire speech, and they laughed me off the stage.”

The romantic said, “I asked her for a date once. She said “no.”

Oh my, it is so easy to walk away and never try again.  ‘Tis easier to give up than to try again.
