Life can be tough. Sometimes when everything seems to being going
well, life just yanks you down like a rollercoaster and takes you
through its twist and turns. It makes you feel miserable and weak. Like
all hope is lost, and that there is nothing you can do about it.
But I urge you NEVER lose hope.
While life has been able to break the strongest of spirits, it is also witness to the millions who have been resilient and have fought back; People who have mustered all of their courage and have wrestled with their problems; People who have come out victorious.
It is these people who you can learn from in times of need. I personally feel that a quote embodies the experience of a lifetime, and that by simply reading a quote you can instantly look into another person’s soul (of somebody who has went through a similar experience) and learn from it.
For this reason I personally love to read quotes. And I feel that these 26 quotes about strength are some of the best in terms of re-strengthening you mind and spirit. They have helped me a lot to revitalize my strength and I hope they help you as well.

sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.” – Louise Erdrich
