Adversities Quotes
-
The keenest sorrow is to recognize ourselves as the sole cause of all our adversities.
Sophocles -
In estimating the adversities of life, we would seldom have much reason to complain of the evils we suffer, did we understand the dangers we daily escape.
Norm MacDonald
-
Adversities are temporary. What is permanent is what we become by the way we react to them.
Dallin H. Oaks -
Mercy is to care, and care very deeply about one another. It is to care to the point where we are prepared to be involved with the sufferings and adversities of others. It implies that I am prepared to put myself in the other person's place. It means that I shall try to really understand why they behave as they do, even though it injures me. It is a willingness to walk a mile in the other man's moccasins before I criticize his conduct. It is the extension of good will, help, forgiveness, compassion and kindness to one who may not seem to deserve it.
W. Phillip Keller
