Motivational Quotes for People in Times of Trouble

Updated on April 25, 2011

Need some motivational quotes?

I am a big fan of motivational quotes, in fact, I am a big fan of any quotes. I love reading quotes and finding the perfect ones that are so relevant to me and the situation that I am in at the time.

Quotes can be very helpful and inspiring in times of trouble, and can really motivate people and help them along.

Those who have read motivational quotes before will know that just one simple quote - a few simple words - can mean so much. Just one quote in a time of trouble can change your day, your life and your world.

Dolly Parton

"If you're feeling low, don't despair. The sun has a sinking spell every night, but it comes back up every morning. The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain."

Tough times never last, but tough people do. - Robert Schuller

Dr. Al Lorin

"One ceases to recognize the significance of mountain peaks if they are not viewed occasionally from the deepest valleys."

Nothing lasts forever — not even your troubles. - Arnold H Glasgow

Catherine Pulsifier

"If you compared your troubles, or challenges, with those of others, you would surely find that there are those whose troubles make yours look like minor inconveniences."

Ann Landers

"If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity it would be this:

Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold your head high, look it squarely in eye and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me."

"If I had a formula for bypassing trouble, I would not pass it round. Trouble creates a capacity to handle it. I don't embrace trouble; that's as bad as treating it as an enemy. But I do say meet it as a friend, for you'll see a lot of it and had better be on speaking terms with it." ~Oliver Wendell Holmes

Jim Rohn

"The difficulties you meet will resolve themselves as you advance. Proceed, and light will dawn, and shine with increasing clearness on your path."

Saint Francis de Sales

"Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections, but instantly set about remedying them. Every day begin the task anew."

"All things are difficult before they are easy.” - Thomas Fuller

Thich Nhat Hanh

"Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy."

"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." - Hellen Keller

Dr. Patrick Gentempo

"What you thought before has led to every choice you have made, and this adds up to you at this moment. If you want to change who you are physically, mentally, and spiritually, you will have to change what you think."

Reinhold Niebuhr

"Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime,

Therefore, we are saved by hope.

Nothing true or beautiful or good makes complete sense in any immediate context of history;

Therefore, we are saved by faith.

Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone.

Therefore, we are saved by love.

No virtuous act is quite as virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as from our own;

Therefore, we are saved by the final form of love, which is forgiveness."

"We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope." - Martin Luther King
