who said when the going gets tough the tough gets going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going The origin of the phrase has been attributed both to Joseph P. Kennedy (1888–1969),[1][unreliable source?] father of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, and sometimes to Norwegian-born American football player and coach Knute Rockne (1888–1931).[2] Currently it is used as a management motivational talk and is popular in many self-help books.
