Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies. You may trod me in the very dirt, but still like dust, I’ll rise.
For every failure, there’s an alternative course of action. You just have to find it. When you come to a roadblock, take a detour.
I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong.
Diligence overcomes difficulties; sloth makes them.
You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best that you have to give.
Never let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do.
Courage allows the successful woman to fail – and to learn powerful lessons from the failure – so that in the end, she didn’t fail at all.
Just like moons and suns, With certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I’ll rise.
Obstacles don’t have to stop you.
Every person falls down at some point. Successful people choose to get back up!
Look at a stone cutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred-and-first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.
The resistance that you fight physically in the gym and the resistance that you fight in life can only build a strong character.
If I had listened to the naysayers, I would still be in the Austrian Alps yodeling.
I believe that we start to see our true personalities when we go through the most difficult moments. This is when we get stronger.
Difficulties are just things to overcome, after all.
The hardest part is starting. Once you get that out of the way, you’ll find the rest of the journey much easier.
There’s always a way. Where there’s a will there is a way. You have to believe.
Never give up! Failure and rejection are only the first step to succeeding.
What doesn’t kill me, can only make me stronger.
