“If you break your neck,
if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you
got a problem. Everything else is inconvenience.” -- Robert
Fulghum
“The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.” --
William Shakespeare, Othello

will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your
circumstances may seem to be.” – John Heywood
“The only thing that overcomes hard luck is hard work.” --
Harry Golden
“If I had a formula for bypassing trouble, I would not pass it
round. Trouble creates a capacity to handle it. I don't
embrace trouble; that's as bad as treating it as an enemy. But
I do say meet it as a friend, for you'll see a lot of it and
had better be on speaking terms with it.” -- Oliver Wendell
Holmes
“In prosperity, our friends know us; in adversity, we know our
friends.” – John Churton Collins
”The healthy and strong individual is the one who asks for
help when he needs it. Whether he's got an abscess on his knee
or in his soul.” -- Rona Barrett
“Some luck lies in not getting what you thought you wanted but
getting what you have, which once you have got it you may be
smart enough to see is what you would have wanted had you
known.” -- Garrison Keillor
“Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn't people feel as free
to delight in whatever remains to them?” -- Rose F. Kennedy
“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a
man's character, give him power.” – Abraham Lincoln
”You have come into a hard world. I know of only one easy
place in it, and that is the grave.” -- Henry Ward Beecher
“Turn your wounds into wisdom.” -- Oprah Winfrey
