Did you know that wherever you find fool's gold, real gold exists somewhere nearby? This also goes for relationships and friendships. Real gold is found in the heart. For every piece of fake gold that you discard, remember that true gold isn't too far.

The trials and pressures of life--and how we face them--often define us. Confronted by adversity, many people give up while others rise up. How do those who succeed do it? They persevere. They find the benefit to them personally that comes from any trial. And they recognize that the best thing about adversity is coming out on the other side of it. There is a sweetness to overcoming your troubles and finding something good in the process, however small it may be. Giving up when adversity threatens can make a person bitter. Persevering through adversity makes one better.

John C. Maxwell

In the adversity of our best friends we often find something that does not displease us.

Brigham Young

I don't think I've had any adversity. I mean, yeah, I studied hard in school, but that's not adversity. Everyone in the Nuba Mountains has faced incredible adversity, every single one of them. Just to finish primary school is an incredible challenge.

Tom Catena

Marc Faber

The mine owners did not find the gold, they did not mine the gold, they did not mill the gold, but by some weird alchemy all the gold belonged to them!

Bill Haywood

The best way to find out if you have any friends is to go broke. The ones that hang on longest are your friends. I don't mean the ones that hang on forever. There aren't any of those.

Raymond Chandler

I think adversity hits people and we all know what to do when adversity hits we keep praying and we find hope.

Devin McCourty

Gold is tried by fire, brave men by adversity.

Seneca the Younger

Fire is the test of gold; adversity, of strong men.

Martha Graham

And dreams are not granted or given - they come with a price. No matter what your goal, you're bound to face adversity, and it's during that adversity, when you find out what your made of.
