Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. ~M. Kathleen Casey
If you're going through hell, keep going. ~Winston Churchill
We have no right to ask when sorrow comes, "Why did this happen to me?" unless we ask the same question for every moment of happiness that comes our way. ~Author Unknown
A bend in the road is not the end of the road... unless you fail to make the turn. ~Author Unknown
The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief. ~William Shakespeare, Othello
I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much. ~Mother Teresa
The only thing that overcomes hard luck is hard work. ~Harry Golden
We acquire the strength we have overcome. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Enduring habits I hate.... Yes, at the very bottom of my soul I feel grateful to all my misery and bouts of sickness and everything about me that is imperfect, because this sort of thing leaves me with a hundred backdoors through which I can escape from enduring habits. ~Friedrich Nietzsche, The Gay Science, 1882
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
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 of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers. ~Garth Brooks
