- What
is
difficulty? Only a word
indicating the degree of strength requisite for accomplishing
particular
objects; a mere notice of the necessity for exertion; a bugbear to
children
and fools; only a mere stimulus to men.—Samuel Warren.
- Difficulty
is a severe instructor,
set over us by the supreme ordinance of a paternal guardian and
legislator,
who knows us better than we know ourselves, as he loves us better too.
He that wrestles with us strengthens our nerves and sharpens our skill.
Our antagonist is our helper.—Burke.
- There
are
few difficulties that
hold out against real attacks; they fly, like the visible horizon,
before
those who advance.
