The oak fought the wind and was broken, the willow bent when it must and survived.

You can break my body but never my spirit because that's graced by God.

Sometimes you have to get lost to be found.

Who wants to die? Everything struggles to live. Look at that tree growing up there out of that grating. It gets no sun, and water only when it rains. It's growing out of sour earth. And it's strong because its hard struggle to live is making it strong. My children will be strong that way.

He knows not his own strength that has not met adversity

Chances are no matter how bad your troubles seem to be, someone somewhere, with less resilience, has successfully conquered a more severe version of your problems.
