Q

Call For Courage

A

Fear is the mind killer
Fear is the little death which brings about total obliteration
I will face my fear
I will let fear pass through me and over me
And when it has pass through me
I will turn to see fear’s path
When fear is gone, there will be no one left
Only I will remain

Q

Stupid

A

Sir my mistake sir
I am but a plebe, a fledgeling, a good for nothing
With not in my head but vacuum
And nothing to do but trip, fall and perpetrate infinitesimal mistakes
I admit that I am wrong
In the dark outstanding
But most of all, I am stupid sir

Q

Loyalty

A
If you work for a man
Then in heaven's sake work for him
Speak well of him
And stand by the institution which he represents
Remember that an ounce of loyalty
Is worth a pound of cleverness
If you must growl, condemn
And eternally find fault
Why not resign from your position
And when you are outside
Damn to your heart's content
But as long as you are part of the institution
Do not condemn it
If you do so
Then the first high wind which comes along
Will blow you away
And you will probably never know why

Espirit de Corps
Is that inborn sentiment
Of courage, of loyalty
And of duty
Because of our pride
In our country, in our units
And in ourselves

Q

Don’t Quit

A

When things go wrong as sometimes they will
When the road your trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
When you want to smile but you have to sigh

When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must but don’t you quit
Life is queer with its twist and turns
As many of us sometimes learn

And many a failure turns about
When he might have won, had he stuck it out
Don’t give up though the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow

Often the goal is nearer than
What it seems to a faint and faltering man
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have won the victor’s cup

And he learned too late when the light came down
How close he was to the golden crown
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt

And you can never tell how close you are
It may be nearer when it seems far
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit
