Storms of Adversity
A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner. Neither do uninterrupted prosperity and success qualify a man for usefulness or happiness. The storms of adversity, like the storms of the ocean, rouse the faculties and excite the invention, prudence, skill, and fortitude of the voyager.
from Sanders' Union Fourth Reader by Charles W. Sanders, Spelling Wisdom Vol. 3
