Ella Wheeler Wilcox
No difficulty can discourage, no obstacle dismay, no trouble dishearten the man who has acquired the art of being alive. Difficulties are but dares of fate, obstacles but hurdles to try his skill, troubles but bitter tonics to give him strength; and he rises higher and looms greater after each encounter with adversity.

Elegance isn't solely defined by what you wear...The graveyards are full of indispensable men...Infinitely more important than sharing one's material...Fighting corruption is not just good governance...Every block of stone has a statue inside it...Every bad joke, every endorsement deal...
