Misfortune falls less heavily upon us if we have looked upon its occurrence as not impossible, and, as the saying is, prepared ourselves for it. If, before the misfortune comes, we have quietly thought over it as something which may happen, the whole of its extent and range is known to us, and we can, at least determine how far it will affect us; so that, if it really arrives, it does not depress us unduly – its weight is not felt to be greater than it actually is. It is then a managed misfortune.
– Arthur Schopenhauer, Chapter Fourteen Theme Quote: Temptation and Preparation. Jason.
