Rise up and win again

They came over to my house, she and her husband; she tired and weary, he, happy with the happiness drink gives.
“What happened?” I asked concerned.
“His business failed!”
“We tried everything,” he said, grinning at me, “numerology, prayer, vastu, good luck charms, everything!”
“Did you ever try to rise again?” I asked and saw the blank look in his eyes.
I decided I would fill today’s piece with quotes about falling, getting up and fighting, again.
“Our greatest glory is not in never falling; but in rising every time we fall.” –Oliver Goldsmith.
“Courage and Perseverance have a magical talisman, before which difficulties and obstacles vanish into thin air.” –John Quincy Adams
“Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.” –Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
“All things are possible to him that believeth.” –Mark 9:23
“He who gains a victory over other men is strong, but he who gains a victory over himself is all powerful”–Lao-tse.
“It feels good to go fronting into a hard wind, winning against its power, but it feels a thousand times better to go forward to a goal of inward achievement, brushing aside all your old internal enemies as you advance.”–Vash Young.
“When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.”–Harriet Beecher Stowe.
“The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide” Longfellow.
“Rebellion against your handicaps gets you nowhere. Self-pity gets you nowhere. One must have the adventurous daring to accept oneself as a bundle of possibilities and undertake the most interesting game in the world; making the most of one’s best.” –Harry Fosdick.
“It is no disgrace to start all over. It is usually an opportunity.”–George Adams.
“I have lived 86 years. I have watched men climb up to success; hundreds of them, and of all the elements that are important for success, the most important is faith. No great thing comes to any man unless he has courage.” –James Gibbons.
“”No one is beaten unless he gives up the fight.” –W. Beran Wolfe.
And let me end with these wonderful words by Dorothea Brande: “All that is necessary to break the spell of inertia and frustration is this: Act as if it is impossible to fail. That is the talisman, the formula, the command of right about face which turns us from failure towards success..!”
