As a rule, adversity reveals genius and prosperity hides it
It is courage, courage, courage, that raises the blood of life to crimson splendor. Live bravely and present a brave front to adversity
In times of stress, be bold and valiant.
Success in the affairs of life often serves to hide one's abilities, whereas adversity frequently gives one an opportunity to discover them.
Remember to be calm in adversity.
Adversity is wont to reveal genius, prosperity to hide it.
A heart well prepared for adversity in bad times hopes, and in good times fears for a change in fortune.
In adversity, remember to keep an even mind.
Live as brave men and face adversity with stout hearts.
In adversity be spirited and firm, and with equal prudence lessen your sail when filled with a too fortunate gale of prosperity.
A good resolve will make any port.
A well-prepared mind hopes in adversity and fears in prosperity. [Lat., Sperat infestis, metuit secundis Alteram sortem, bene preparatum Pectus.]
Adversity reveals the genius of a general; good fortune conceals it.
The one who prosperity takes too much delight in will be the most shocked by reverses.
