Acceptance is not love. You love a person because he or she has lovable traits, but you accept everybody just because they're alive and human. - Albert Ellis
When we tackle obstacles,we find hidden reserves of courage and resilience we did not know we had.And it is only when we are faced with failure do we realize that these resources were always there within us.We only need to find them and move on with our lives. ~A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
Persistence and resilience only come from having been given the chance to work through difficult problems. ~Gever Tulley
Resilience is all about being able to overcome the unexpected.Substainability is about survival.The goal of resilience is to thrive.~Jamais Cascio
Things don't go wrong and break your heart so you can become bitter and give up.They happen to break you down and build you up so you can be all you were intended to be. ~Charles Jones
When we plant a rose seed in the earth, we notice that it is small, but we do not criticize it as "rootless and stemless." We treat it as a seed, giving it the water and nourishment required of a seed. When it first shoots up out of the earth, we don't condemn it as immature and underdeveloped; nor do we criticize the buds for not being open when they appear. We stand in wonder at the process taking place and give the plant the care it needs at each stage of its development. The rose is a rose from the time it is a seed to the time it dies. Within it, at all times, it contains its whole potential. It seems to be constantly in the process of change; yet at each state, at each moment, it is perfectly all right as it is.
Man is the only animal that deals in that atrocity of atrocities War. He is the only one that gathers his brethren about him and goes forth in cold blood and calm pulse to exterminate his kind. He is the only animal that for sordid wages will march out... and help to slaughter strangers of his own species who have done him no harm and with whom he has no quarrel.... And in the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for the universal brotherhood of man with his mouth. ~Mark Twain
(Sorry this isn't a positive quote,but it is,unfortunately,very true)
