A Quote by Sydney Banks
Life is like any other contact sport; you’re gonna get your knocks. But it’s not the knocks that count, it’s how you handle them. If you handle them with anger, distrust, jealousy, hate, this in return is what you’re going to get. But if you handle these knocks with love and understanding, they don’t mean much. They just dissipate.

Life is hard. It’s cruel sometimes. It’s merciless and unfair, but we all go through difficult times, one way or another.

You perceive what you are, what you lack, what you could be.
