Adversity, the essence found, in quotations & art.
Adversity has the effect of
eliciting talents
which in prosperous
circumstances
would have lain dormant.
Horace
*
A
wounded deer leaps the highest.
Emily
Dickson
*
One may not reach the dawn
save by the path of the night.
Kahlil
Gibran
*
Adversity
is the state
in which man most easily
becomes acquainted with himself,
being
especially free of admirers then.
Samuel
Johnson
*
People
are like stained – glass windows.
They
sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but
when the darkness sets in,
there true beauty is revealed
only if there is a light from within.
Elizabeth
Kubler Ross
