Use at least one quote from each poem in your discussion; identifying which poem it is from. (Site 1 and site 2) IF YOU ANSWER YOU GET BRAINLIEST AND 50 POINTS PLEASE HELP THE POEMS ARE BELOW THIS 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 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 in to sing as you tackle the thing That “cannot be done,” and you’ll do it. You You are the fellow that has to decide Whether you'll do it or toss it aside. You are the fellow who makes up your mind Whether you'll lead or will linger behind Whether you'll try for the goal that's afar Or just be contented to stay where you are. Take it or leave it. Here's something to do! Just think it over — It's all up to you! What do you wish? To be known as a shirk, Known as a good man who's willing to work, Scorned for a loafer or praised by your chief, Rich man or poor man or beggar or thief? Eager or earnest or dull through the day, Honest or crooked? It's you who must say! You must decide in the face of the test Whether you'll shirk it or give it your best. Nobody here will compel you to rise; No one will force you to open your eyes; No one will answer for you yes or no, Whether to stay there or whether to go. Life is a game, but it's you who must say, Whether as cheat or as sportsman you'll play. Fate may betray you, but you settle first Whether to live to your best or your worst. So, whatever it is you are wanting to be, Remember, to fashion the choice you are free. Kindly or selfish, or gentle or strong, Keeping the right way or taking the wrong, Careless of honor or guarding your pride, All these are questions which you must decide. Yours the selection, whichever you do; The thing men call character's all up to you!
