Adversity Quotes

Adversity is an essential element to fuel yourself in this material world. You can feel the drizzling of happiness only because sadness exists as an opposite emotion to it. Otherwise you will get bored in the wide world and will indulge yourself in meaningless things. Some people learn from adversities and make new records while others decide to fail themselves seeing the horrible face of adversity. You should be the former kind who learn things from adversity and should go light ahead of others, with your new found wisdom. Read these quotes to open your eyes to the new path of opportunities that are unlocked by adversity.
