You can be a victim of cancer, or a survivor of cancer. It's a mindset.

I don't consider myself a cancer survivor because I never became a victim.

It is important for people to know that no matter what lies in their past, they can overcome the dark side and press on to a brighter world.

I became a war hero before going on to critical acclaim as a professional victim.

What distresses me at times is that I meet a lot of people in their 40's, 50's, 60's, who still say they're a victim of child abuse.

Be a victor, not a victim.
