Quotes About Overcoming Obstacles

Obstacles, adversities, setbacks - whatever you may choose to call them, are some things, that we humans, do not ever want to cross paths with, in our lives. But honestly, is it really possible? Or even if it is possible, do you really think that the human race can ever be happy if it had no problems to solve or goals to achieve.
