Arduous Quotations
Peace is not only better than war, but infinitely more arduous. George Bernard Shaw True contentment is a thing as active as agriculture. It is the power of getting out of any situation all that there is in it. It is arduous and it is rare. Gilbert K. Chesterton I attempt an arduous task; but there is no worth in that which is not a difficult achievement. Ovid On receiving from the people the sacred trust twice confided on my illustrious predecessor, and which he has discharged so faithfully and so well, I know that I can not expect to perform the arduous task with equal ability and success. Martin Van Buren A man who dreads trials and difficulties cannot become a revolutionary.
