So by you're logic nobody should put forth an effort so they can avoid failure?

First of all, I'm not logic.

Secondly, addressing your actual point, those who would definitely fail anyway shouldn't put forth an effort. Everyone else might as well.

Like the poster I'd seen on Demotivators. "Winners never quit, Quitters never win, but those who never win and never quit are idiots."

That's not right. It's

"Quitters never lose, losers never quit. Losers who don't quit are idiots."

I'm sorry, the strong implication that those who haven't succeeded should give up threw me off.

But yours just doesn't make sense. In mine, you have winners not quitting. Thus, those who quit aren't winners. In mine, losers aren't quitting. Thus, quitters aren't losers.

Loser.

In yours you said Quitters don't lose. Losers don't quit. Losers who don't quit are idiots.


Somewhat redundant.

Mine says that quitters aren't losers. Yours says that quitters aren't winners. Which one is better?

Wrong answer.

Yours suggests that people shouldn't quit, because they won't win. Mine suggests that people should quit, because they don't lose.

See why mine is better?

No, not really. Mine said that winners never quit. Meaning if you win, you don't quit. Quitters never win, meaning if you quit, you don't win, and Those who never win and never quit are idiots. Meaning if you continually lose, you should quit. So all mine suggests is people should quit if they continually lose.
