Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience. Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success, inasmuch as every discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true, and every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid.

You get to a certain age where you prepare yourself for happiness. Sometimes you never remember to actually get happy.

Someday, everything will make perfect sense. So for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears, be strong, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.

The most beautiful people I've known are those who have known trials, have known struggles, have known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.

God does not waste our suffering. It always serves a purpose.

To overcome difficulties is to experience the full delight of existence.

Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.

When you go through heartbreak, you just do the things that get you by. Eventually, you realise it's about making the most of life.

A lifetime of happiness! No man alive could bear it; it would be hell on earth.

and after all, the wrong road always leads somewhere.

We are contented with our day when we have been able to bear our grief in silence, and act as if we were not suffering.
