Hi Sane Forumites
Just wanted to start a thread where people can share quotes, poems or parts of literature that can help them get through the tough times.
Feel free to tag anyone.
My contribution today is from Oscar Wilde:
"What seems to us as bitter trial are often blessings in disguise"

Some motivation that I need today......
A pearl of wisdom from one of the world's most famous scientists - Stephen Hawking
On not giving up:
“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet.
Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the Universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just give up."
