Prosperity is a great teacher; adversity is a greater. Possession pampers the mind; privation trains and strengthens it.

He that can heroically endure adversity will bear prosperity with equal greatness of soul; for the mind that cannot be dejected by the former is not likely to be transported with the latter.

The good things which belong to prosperity are to be wished, but the good things that belong to adversity are to be admired.

Prosperity is not without many fears and distastes; and adversity is not without comforts and hopes.

In Prosperity, we forget God but in Adversity we know Him!
