What is Quotempole?
Quote
Most people wait until tragedy strikes before thinking about how to incorporate tragedy into their life. And then the shock is often too great to absorb into their emotional and psychological system. Although it may not always work, a philosophy of life ought to be regarded as an inoculation against despair. Many people have confronted terrible tragedy, retained their faith, and avoided despair-and they have done so thanks in large measure to having a philosophy of life.
