The second step is to see how the ABCs operate every day in your own life.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1132/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1132/ <![CDATA[Adversity is, to me at least, a tonic and a bracer.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1131/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1131/ <![CDATA[No untroubled day has ever dawned for me.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1133/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1133/ <![CDATA[Fire is the test of gold; adversity, of strong men.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1135/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1135/ <![CDATA[Brave men rejoice in adversity, just as brave soldiers triumph in war.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1136/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1136/ <![CDATA[The bravest sight in the world is to see a great man struggling against adversity.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1137/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1137/ <![CDATA[One often learns more from ten days of agony than from ten years of contentment.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1139/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/1139/ <![CDATA[Through tattered clothes, small vices do appear.
