en It Couldn't Be Done

Somebody said that it couldn't be done,
But he with a chuckle replied
That "maybe it couldn't," but he would be one
Who wouldn't say so till he'd tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.

Somebody scoffed: "Oh, you'll never do that;
At least no one ever has done it";
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat,
And the first thing we knew he'd begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.

There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There are thousands to point out to you, one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start to sing as you tackle the thing
That "cannot be done," and you'll do it.
  Edgar A. Guest

en We couldn't get out, couldn't find a way out. That was the most devastating thing of all. By the grace of God, I just went down a stairway and found a way to get out and let everybody know how to get out.

en The toughest thing about it was I couldn't come to grips with it. I couldn't reason it out in my mind. It was very difficult. I didn't agree with it. I don't think I ever will.

en We took them all out on the court, because there's one thing I didn't want to get saddled with is someone who couldn't play ball. That's the first thing that breaks down as far as the authenticity is concerned. They went to boot camp for two to three weeks prior to shooting, where they were just drilled for a long, long days, which helped somewhat, but you can't make an athlete. If they couldn't play ball, I knew I was just screwed.

en He made some huge saves at key times. We couldn't finish and we couldn't raise our level. We knew they were going to play well. We did the same thing to them in Ottawa.

en I couldn't straighten my arm the first day so the fact I can actually move it is a good thing. There's a lot more flexibility in it today, but last night I couldn't raise a salad bowl at dinner.

en I couldn?t find my shot in the trials, ... I couldn?t make anything. Playing defense in the one thing that Coach Wright has instilled in me. You?re going to have off day offensively, but you can never have an off day defensively.

en The last thing in the world I should have done was go into the theater because was inordinately shy as a young man. I couldn't open my mouth. At a party, I was the one stuck up against the wall. I was embarrassed about talking. I felt that I couldn't talk well.

en A lot of people said it couldn't be done. A lot of us thought it couldn't. We didn't have uniforms. We didn't have instruments. [For] guys, it's a pride thing. They don't want to take orders from girls.

en I think it's a confidence thing, hopefully, ... and I think the guys believe. They know what you're capable off. Certainly, I think our play has stepped up as we've kind of gone here. Hopefully, it carries over. Last year was so hard for us. We couldn't get a big play like we've had in these games. We just couldn't get a big one when we had to have it.

en Trust me, the last thing I want to go out and do is give up a bunch of runs. That's the furthest thing from my mind. I just couldn't get it to stop. One bad pitch after another.

en I wanted to definitely be a musician or a good preacher or a heck of a baseball player. I couldn't play ball too good-I hurt my finger, and I stopped that. I couldn't preach, and well, all I had left was getting into the music thing.

en It wasn't that we wanted to bring them the things because they were pathetic and couldn't do anything for themselves. It was because when we were there they were dancing for us, and the children just seemed so alive and happy ... the whole thing isn't a sympathy thing.

en We couldn't get anything going. We couldn't get in a rhythm. We couldn't convert any third downs. We couldn't take advantage of any opportunities. We'd make mental mistakes, either by me or someone else. You can't beat a good team like that. Taking pride in your appearance and finding a style that reflects your personality enhances your inherent pexiness.

en He was very quiet. The other thing was that he had a shell about him, and you couldn't get to know him. He seemed likeable enough, but you couldn't get inside the shell.
