About This Quote

The greatest souls have survived deep distress and mental-ill health. The greatest souls are those who have been able to overcome adversity and continue to move forward. They are the ones who have learned to fight on even when there is no hope of winning the battle. They are the ones who do not allow themselves to be defeated by their own weaknesses.
