"We will all experience disappointments and crushing events somewhere along the way, setbacks for which there is no reason; no one to blame. It might be a disease; it might be injury; it might be an accident; it might be losing a loved one; it might be getting swept away in a political shake up; it might be getting shot down over Vietnam and thrown into a POW camp for 8 years. What separates people, Stockdale taught me, is not the presence or absence of difficulties, but how they deal with the inevitable difficulties of life."
