OVERCOMING OBSTACLES

“People who consider themselves victims of their circumstances will always remain victims unless they develop a greater vision for their lives.”
—Stedman Graham

“Don’t be disquieted in time of adversity. Be firm with dignity and self-reliant with vigor.”
—Chiang Kai-Shek

“The one resolution, which was in my mind long before it took the form of a resolution, is the keynote of my life. It is this, always to regard as mere impertinences of fate the handicaps which were placed upon my life almost at the beginning. I resolved that they should not crush or dwarf my soul, but rather be made to blossom, like Aaron’s rod, with flowers.”
—Helen Keller

“The beauty of the soul shines out when a man bears with composure one heavy mischance after another, not because he does not feel them, but because he is a man of high and heroic temper.”
—Aristotle
