Motivational Quotes
Adversity
If your cup seems too bitter, if your burden seems to heavy, be sure that it is the wounded hand that is holding the cup, and that it is me who carried the cross that is carrying the burden.

Best Quotes about Adversity
When I dig another out of trouble, the hole from which I lift him is the place where I bury my own.
Your dips an falls do not confound me, half as much as your heights astound me.
You have endured worse things; God will grant an end even to these.
Virgil
Failure is success if we learn from it.
Forbes, Malcolm S.
I had to pick myself up and get on with it, do it all over again, only even better this time.
Walton, Sam
Sometimes adversity is what you need to face in order to become successful.
Ziglar, Zig
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
Brave men rejoice in adversity, just as brave soldiers triumph in war.
Seneca
If you aren't in over your head, how do you know how tall you are?
No man is more unhappy than the one who is never in adversity; the greatest affliction of life is never to be afflicted.
Adversity causes some men to break, others to break records.
Ward, William A.
Only entropy comes easy.
Mumford, Lewis
Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. [Isaiah 48:10]
Bible
One often learns more from ten days of agony than from ten years of contentment.
Shain, Merle
Mishaps are like knives, that either serve us or cut us, as we grasp them by the blade or by the handle.
Lowell, James Russell
He who knows the darkness shall learn to live in the light.
In terms of the game theory, we might say the universe is so constituted as to maximize play. The best games are not those in which all goes smoothly and steadily toward a certain conclusion, but those in which the outcome is always in doubt. Similarly, the geometry of life is designed to keep us at the point of maximum tension between certainty and uncertainty, order and chaos. Every important call is a close one. We survive and evolve by the skin of our teeth. We really wouldn't want it any other way.
Leonard, George
One may not reach the dawn save by the path of the night.
Gibran, Kahlil
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
If the going is real easy, beware, you may be headed down hill and don't know it.
Two frogs fell into a bowl of cream. One didn't panic, he relaxed and drowned. The other kicked and struggled so much that the cream turned to butter and he walked out.
The stars are constantly shining, but often we do not see them until the dark hours.
The one who prosperity takes too much delight in will be the most shocked by reverses.
Horace
When walking through the valley of shadows, remember, a shadow is cast by a Light.
Barclay, H.K.
Cushion the painful effects of hard blows by keeping the enthusiasm going strong, even if doing so requires struggle.
Peale, Norman Vincent
Tribulation will not hurt you, unless as it too often does; it hardens you and makes you sour, narrow and skeptical.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel
Dust is a protective coating for fine furniture.
Burata, Mario
If your knees are knocking, kneel on them.
Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day's own trouble be sufficient for the day.
Bible
That which causes us trials shall yield us triumph: and that which make our hearts ache shall fill us with gladness. The only true happiness is to learn, to advance, and to improve: which could not happen unless we had commence with error, ignorance, and imperfection. We must pass through the darkness, to reach the light.
Pike, Albert
He who knows no hardships will know no hardihood. He who faces no calamity will need no courage. Mysterious though it is, the characteristics in human nature which we love best grow in a soil with a strong mixture of troubles.
Fosdick, Harry Emerson
Acceptance of what has happened is the first step to overcoming the consequences of any misfortune.
James, William
To endure is the first thing that a child ought to learn, and that which he will have the most need to know.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
No untroubled day has ever dawned for me.
Seneca
You never know what events are going to transpire to get you home.
Movie, Apollo 13
Here is the rule to remember in the future, When anything tempts you to be bitter: not, This is a misfortune but To bear this worthily is good fortune.
Aurelius, Marcus
Everything I did in my life that was worthwhile I caught hell for it.
Warren, Earl
If you can keep your head about you when all about you are losing theirs, its just possible you haven't grasped the situation.
Kerr, Jean
A man is insensible to the relish of prosperity until he has tasted adversity.
Saadi
We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.
Grant, Hanmer Parsons
It's easier to go down a hill than up it but the view is much better at the top.
Bennet, Arnold
As iron put into the fire loseth its rust and becometh clearly red-hot, so he that wholly turneth himself unto God puts off all slothfulness, and is transformed into a new man.
Kempis, Thomas
One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
Trouble is the common denominator of living. It is the great equalizer.
Landers, Ann
Things were bad but now they are OK.
Seymour, Harold J.
Every man has a rainy corner of his life whence comes foul weather which follows him.
Richter, Jean Paul
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.
Forget the times of your distress, but never forget what they taught you.
Gesser
Never bear more than one kind of trouble at a time. Some people bear three kinds; all they have had, all they have now, and all they expect to have.
Hale, Edward Everett
The path of least resistance is the path of the loser.
Weltman, Phil
