The single greatest test of Life is this: How much are you willing to struggle -- to spend time, energy, and effort -- to reach a desired outcome?
Laura Teresa Marquez
I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life's greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret.
Anthony Robbins

Carl Rogers
Distance tests a horse's strength. Time reveals a person's character.

Chinese Proverbs
Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.
C.S. Lewis

Fail at love, and the other tests don't matter.

The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.

The test is to recognize the mistake, admit it and correct it. To have tried to do something and failed is vastly better than to have tried to do nothing and succeeded.
Dale E. Turner
No one tests the depth of a river with both feet
