Adversity

1. Adversity introduces a man to himself.
                                                                           -Anonymous

2. God brings men into deep waters, not to drown them, but to cleanse them.
                                                                                 -Aughey

3. Constant success shows us but one side of the world; adversity brings out the reverse of the picture.
                                                                                  -Colton
 
4. Prosperity is great teacher; adversity is a greater. Possession pampers the min; privations trains and strengthens it.
                                                                                    -Hazlitt

5. Sweet are the uses of adversity;
    Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous,
    Wears yet a precious jewel in his hand.
                                                                 -Shakespeare, As You 
                                                                   Like It. Act II. Sc. I

6. There is no education like adversity.
                                                                                      -Disraeli
