In the clearing stands a boxer
and a fighter by his trade
and he carries the reminders
of every glove that laid him down
or cut him ’til he cried out
in his anger and his shame,
“I am leaving! I am leaving!”
…But the fighter still remains.
– “The Boxer”, Simon and Garfunkle
Everyone wants to quit. Everyone wants to flee. Fight or flight reflex makes quitting the first and best alternative. Despite the ease of flight, a fighter simply cannot. It just isn’t in his nature.
