“It's not what happens to us, but our response to what happens to us that hurts us.”
“It's not what happens to us that molds us. It's what we do with what happens to us.”
“We are not disturbed by what happens to us, but by our thoughts about what happens to us.”
“It's not so much what happens to us but how we deal with what happens to us.”
“what has happened to us has happened to everyone or only us; if to everyone, then it's no novelty, and if only to us, then it won't be understood.”
“What happens to us either happens to everyone or only to us: in the first instance it's banal; in the second it's incomprehensible.”
