I was browsing the internet recently, and I came upon this quote by Susan Butcher, the Iditarod winner in 1988: "I do not know the word 'quit.' Either I never did, or I abolished it." I feel like this quote describes me. In fact, it is me. I think I have mentioned Benedick before, but if I have not, let me just say he is not my favorite person in the world, to put it nicely. I think we bicker too much to get along with each other, and I don't know if we will ever act friendly towards one another.
Going back to the quote, I feel like that quote describes me for who I am. Yes, I do argue with Benedick a lot, but that is to prove my point. Yes, we insult each other, but I just try to tell him what I think because he obviously does not get it. Usually, I win these arguments because I know how to fight back. I have persistence, which allows me to win most of my arguments with Benedick. I feel like persistence is an important quality for a woman to have, especially in this society. Just like Susan Butcher, I never give up, and I persist in what I think is worth the argument.
