“Life's a forge. Yes, and hammer and anvil, too.

You'll be roasted, smelted, and pounded, and you'll scarce know what's happening to you.

But stand proudly to it. Metal is worthless till it is shaped and tempered.

More labor than luck.

Face the pounding, don't fear the proving; and you'll stand well against any hammer and anvil.”

— Lloyd Alexander
