The harder the conflict,

the more glorious the triumph.

What we obtain too cheap,

we esteem too lightly;

it is dearness only that gives everything its value.

I love the man that can smile in trouble,

that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection.

'Tis the business of little minds to shrink;

but he whose heart is firm,

and whose conscience approves his conduct,

will pursue his principles unto death.

- M. Scott Peck
