“Who wants to die? Everything struggles to live. Look at that tree growing up there out of that grating. It gets no sun, and water only when it rains. It's growing out of sour earth. And it's strong because its hard struggle to live is making it strong. My children will be strong that way.”
― A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

“It is not the strongest or the most intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change.”
