“Things don't go wrong and break your heart so you can become bitter and give up. They happen to break you down and build you up so you can be all that you were intended to be.”
- Samuel Johnson [1709-1784], who more famously observed: "Depend upon it, Sir, when a man  knows he is to be hanged in a fortnight, it concentrates his mind wonderfully."
