About This Quote

"Don't quit." This is a quote from a book, "Who Moved My Cheese?" by Dr. Spencer Johnson. In the story, a man named Wally is very lazy and would rather sit around and watch TV, rather than work. One day, Wally came home from work and found that something inside the house had changed.

In order to find out what had changed, he went to the new spot where the cheese was before and found that it was gone. He asked his coworkers if they would move his cheese from its old spot to its new spot since the workers were too busy to do it themselves. They all agreed to do so, but when they got back, they found that his cheese was gone again.

The next day they tried again, but when they got back home they discovered that his cheese was gone again! The fourth day, the workers were so annoyed with this that they decided to just move his cheese to a new spot in the room every day until he moves it himself. He did this for a while until finally he realized what they were doing and moved his own cheese himself!
