“ My fiction is almost always inspired by a character's need or desire to rise above him- or herself. No one is perfect and some of us have much adversity in our lives; it is those people who struggle to rise above their nature or background that I find the most interesting and heroic.”
“ Many who seem to be struggling with adversity are happy; many, amid great affluence, are utterly miserable.”
“ Constant success shows us but one side of the world; adversity brings out the reverse of the picture.”
“ Good actions are a guard against the blows of adversity.”
“ Remorse sleeps during prosperity but awakes bitter consciousness during adversity.”
“ Adversity reveals genius, prosperity conceals it.”
“ For gold is tried in the fire and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity.”
“ Nothing is harder to direct than a man in prosperity; nothing more easily managed that one is adversity.”
“ Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.”
“ A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.”
