Question

【题目】The man who thinks he can

-Walter Wintle

If you think you are beaten, you are;

If you think you dare not, you don't.

If you'd like to win, but you think you can't,

It is almost a certain—you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost;

For out in this world we find

Success begins with a fellow's will;

It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you're outclassed(大大超过), you are;

You've got to think high to rise.

You've got to be sure of yourself before

You can ever win the prize.

Life's battles don't always go

To the stronger or faster man;

But sooner or later the man who wins

Is the one who thinks he can!
