About This Quote
It is in the storm, not the calm, that a rainbow is born. This is really two quotes in one. It is both spoken by Nelson Mandela and written by William Shakespeare. When you are able to look at the bad things in life, but not let them get to you, you can be at peace with yourself.
The world will continue to be full of storms, but you can see them as rainbows born out of those storms rather than as something that keeps you down. You can choose to see the negative aspects of things that happen to you as just another challenge that will help you grow stronger and better prepared for whatever may come.
