Analysis of he can
if you think you are beaten ; you are
if you think you dare not ;you don,t
if you take things as they are;you are passimistic
life's battels don't always go to the one,
the one who wins; the winner
but sooner or later the man who thinks he can
the man who says "game is not over,yet i have not won"
