Memory

Their eyes had failed them, or they had failed their eyes, and so they were having their fingers pressed forcibly down on the fiery Braille alphabet of a dissolving economy."

Emotion

"High station in life is earned by the gallantry with which appalling experiences are survived with grace."

Resilience
