In each of us there is another whom we do not know. He speaks to us in dreams and tells us how differently he sees us from the way we see ourselves.

It's a very difficult career in the long run, but at the same time, there's no long-haul career I'd rather be involved with.

Holly Hunter

Coming to terms with the fact that my marriage was a failure was devastating and very difficult. I blamed myself for a lot of things. It took me a very long time to get over it.

Spain is facing an economic situation of extreme difficulty, I repeat, of extreme difficulty, and anyone who doesn't understand that is fooling themselves.

Mariano Rajoy

When we complain about our current situation, we remain in it; when we praise God in the midst of difficulty, He raises us out of it.
