Adversity and Challenge Quotes



Adversity and Challenge


Pay no attention to what the critics say;

no statue has ever been erected to a critic.
Jean Sibelius


It is not the critic who counts, nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows great enthusiasms, great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly,

so that his place shall never be with those timid souls who
know neither victory nor defeat.
Theodore Roosevelt


Challenges are what make life interesting;

overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.
Joshua J Marine

In order to be walked on, you have to be lying down.
Brian Weir


There are two ways of meeting difficulties:

you alter the difficulties, or you alter yourself to meet them.
Phyllis Battome


When I hear somebody sigh,

"Life is hard," I am always tempted to ask,

"Compared to what?"
Sydney J Harris

You talk about a Challenge, try running down a Rabbit Wow!

Spot Dunckel ( World Famous Beagle )
