Best Quotes about Adversity
If your knees are knocking, kneel on them.
Dust is a protective coating for fine furniture.
Burata, Mario
I didn't know I'd have to be torn down before I could be built up.
No man is more unhappy than the one who is never in adversity; the greatest affliction of life is never to be afflicted.
The actual tragedies of life bear no relation to one's preconceived ideas. In the event, one is always bewildered by their simplicity, their grandeur of design, and by that element of the bizarre which seems inherent in them.
Cocteau, Jean
Most of the shadows of this life are caused by standing in one's own sunshine
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
When things are bad, we take comfort in the thought that they could always get worse. And when they are, we find hope in the thought that things are so bad they have to get better.
Forbes, Malcolm S.
You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.
Angelis, Barbara De
Adversity is a great teacher, but this teacher makes us pay dearly for its instruction; and often the profit we derive, is not worth the price we paid.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
Be still my heart; thou hast known worse than this.
Homer
I had to pick myself up and get on with it, do it all over again, only even better this time.
Walton, Sam
The finest steel has to go through the hottest fire.
Nixon, Richard M.
I would never have amounted to anything were it not for adversity. I was forced to come up the hard way.
Penney, J. C. (James Cash)
Am I willing to give up what I have in order to be what I am not yet? Am I able to follow the spirit of love into the desert? It is a frightening and sacred moment. There is no return. One's life is charged forever. It is the fire that gives us our shape.
Richards, Mary Caroline
Painful as it may be, a significant emotional event can be the catalyst for choosing a direction that serves us--and those around us -- more effectively. Look for the learning.
Allenbaugh, Eric
Every silver lining has a cloud.
Avon
The sooner I fall behind, the more time I have to catch up.
We deem those happy who from the experience of life have learnt to bear its ills without being overcome by them.
Jung, Carl
If you want to win anything -- a race, your self, your life -- you have to go a little berserk.
Sheehan, George
Misfortunes leave wounds which bleed drop by drop even in sleep; thus little by little they train man by force and dispose him to wisdom in spite of himself. Man must learn to think of himself as a limited and dependent being; and only suffering teaches
Weil, Simone
Show me someone who has done something worthwhile, and I'll show you someone who has overcome adversity.
Holtz, Lou
Trouble shared is trouble halved.
Sayers, Dorothy L.
It is easy enough to be pleasant, When life flows by like a song. But the man worth while is the one who can smile, when everything goes dead wrong. For the test of the heart is troubled, And it always comes with the years. And the smiles that is worth the praises of earth is the smile that shines through tears.
Wilcox, Ella Wheeler
The good things of prosperity are to be wished; but the good things that belong to adversity are to be admired.
Seneca
When I dig another out of trouble, the hole from which I lift him is the place where I bury my own.
Adversity is, to me at least, a tonic and a bracer.
Scott, Sir Walter
Search for the seed of good in every adversity. Master that principle and you will own a precious shield that will guard you well through all the darkest valleys you must traverse. Stars may be seen from the bottom of a deep well, when they cannot be discerned from the mountaintop. So will you learn things in adversity that you would never have discovered without trouble. There is always a seed of good. Find it and prosper.
Mandino, Og
If the career you have chosen has some unexpected inconvenience, console yourself by reflecting that no career is without them.
Johnson
You have endured worse things; God will grant an end even to these.
Virgil
Men often bear little grievances with less courage than they do large misfortunes.
Aesop
God had one son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering.
Augustine, St.
I got in trouble with the police, and that was a rude awakening. That was it. I'd seen the bottom of the pit, and it was time to scrape myself out of it.
Adams, Bryan
The willow which bends to the tempest, often escapes better than the oak which resists it; and so in great calamities, it sometimes happens that light and frivolous spirits recover their elasticity and presence of mind sooner than those of a loftier character.
Scott, Sir Walter
Cushion the painful effects of hard blows by keeping the enthusiasm going strong, even if doing so requires struggle.
Peale, Norman Vincent
It is odd but agitation or contest of any kind gives a rebound to my spirits and sets me up for a time.
Byron, Lord
In times of storm, the shallowness of the root structure is revealed.
Just because Fate doesn?t deal you the right cards, it doesn?t mean you should give up. It just means you have to play the cards you get to their maximum potential.
Brown, Les
What I am looking for is a blessing not in disguise.
Collins, Kitty O'neill
Only entropy comes easy.
Mumford, Lewis
Out of love and hatred, out of earnings and borrowings and leadings and losses; out of sickness and pain; out of wooing and worshipping; out of traveling and voting and watching and caring; out of disgrace and contempt, comes our tuition in the serene and beautiful laws.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
One who gains strength by overcoming obstacles possesses the only strength which can overcome adversity.
Schweitzer, Albert
Difficulty, my brethren, is the nurse of greatness --a harsh nurse, who roughly rocks her foster-children into strength and athletic proportion.
Bryant, William C.
You'll never find a better sparring partner than adversity.
Schmidt, Walt
We all know that sponges grow in the ocean but I wander how much deeper the ocean would be if that wasn't the case.
Adversity is a fact of life. It can't be controlled. What we can control is how we react to it.
Anytime you suffer a setback or disappointment, put your head down and plow ahead.
Brown, Les
Every blade of grass has its angel that bends over it and whispers, grow, grow.
Talmud, The
Forget the times of your distress, but never forget what they taught you.
Gesser
It takes a real storm in the average person's life to make him realize how much worrying he has done over the squalls.
Advisor, Heartland
Do not free the camel of the burden of his hump; you may be freeing him from being a camel.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
