Surviving Quotes

What it takes to just keep going.

Surviving means different things here — outlasting a natural disaster, beating cancer, or figuring out how to get by without belonging to any particular group. Each quote treats Resilience as something earned, not given.

Every day should be #GivingTuesday when it comes to surviving natural catastrophes and man-made disasters.
