Terri Barnes asked Chris Bradford:

I would like to verify: Is this quote from your book, "The Way of the Sword"? Is it original to you? “Anyone can give up; it is the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone would expect you to fall apart, now that is true strength.” Thank you, terribarnes@me.com

Chris Bradford Yes, the quote is from The Way of the Sword. I wrote the book in 2008. The quote itself may have been inspired by other works but as far as I'm aware it is original to that story. I know there's a variation of it by Oliver Wilkins online. I hope that's helpful.
