Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish
them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness
to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing.
Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength.
August Wilso
The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is
dearness only that gives everything its value.I love
the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather
strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection.
'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but he whose
heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct,
will pursue his principles unto death.
Thomas Paine
It takes more courage to reveal insecurities than to hide
them, more strength to relate to people than to dominate
them, more 'manhood' to abide by thought-out principles
rather than blind reflex. Toughness is in the soul and spirit,
not in muscles and an immature mind.
Alex Karras
He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is a shameful thing for the soul to faint while the body still perseveres.
Marcus Aurelius
In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always wins, not through strength but by perseverance.
Robert H. Jackson
Don't wish me happiness — I don't expect to be happy; it's gotten
beyond that, somehow. Wish me courage and strength and a sense of humor
I will need them all.
Anne Morrow Lindbergh
