Difficulties break some men but make others. No axe is sharp enough to cut the soul of a sinner who keeps on trying, one armed with the hope that he will rise even in the end.

Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity. Don't fight them. Just find a new way to stand.

Every one of us gets through the tough times because somebody is there, standing in the gap to close it for us.

Fix your course on a star and you'll navigate any storm.

Adversity makes you stronger, don't give in, don't back down, and never stop doing what you know is right. Nothing worth doing, ever ever ever came easy, and the more righteous you fight, the more opposition that you will face. I've accomplished a tremendous amount, in a very short time as president.

What I know for sure is that there is no strength without challenge, adversity, resistance, and often pain.
