"Whatever the course of our lives, we should receive them as the
highest gift from the hand of God, in which equally reposed the power
to do nothing whatever for us. Indeed, we should accept misfortune not
only in thanks, but in infinite gratitude to Providence, which by such
means detaches us from an excessive love for Earthly things and
elevates our minds to the celestial and divine."

-Galileo
