Aurelius, Marcus

30.
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

31.

Paine, Thomas

36.
You have endured worse things; God will grant an end even to these.
Virgil

37.
Trials, temptations, disappointments -- all these are helps instead of hindrances, if one uses them rightly. They not only test the fiber of character but strengthen it. Every conquering temptation represents a new fund of moral energy. Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before.
Buckham, James

38.
A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials.
Proverb, Chinese

39.
Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward.
Gallagher, Robert C.

40.
Men often bear little grievances with less courage than they do large misfortunes.
Aesop

41.
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.

Wilcox, Ella Wheeler

Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional.
Casey, M Kathleen

Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though sometimes it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.
Ford, Henry

48.
Trouble shared is trouble halved.
Sayers, Dorothy L.

Wells, H.G.

Maltz, Maxwell
