LRB Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 One of my all-time favorite quotations (from Winston Churchill): "When you're going through hell, keep going." Or, to put it in more modern terms (from Dory of "Finding Nemo"): "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming." Still trying is half the battle. Hang in there, and know that we've got your back!
