Pain exposes what you can do. Pleasure declares who you are.

The storm is the test, the sunshine is its reward.

Before you hate pressure, remind yourself that is where diamonds are made.

Throwing a candle in the dark does not diminish its light.

Rainbows can’t rise without storms.

A star is not afraid of darkness, for its light comes from within.

The world would have no rainbows if the sky had not storms.

If stars avoided the dark, they would not be visible at night.

The ocean is never afraid of wind rising against it; it creates beautiful waves instead.
