    Horace - Adversity

    • 523 Words
    • 3 Pages

    What I believe that Horace is trying to say through “Adversity has the effect of electing talents which in prosperous circumstances would have lain dormant” is that challenges bring about innate talents in individuals which would have otherwise been undiscovered. Through personal experiences and the novel “The Scarlet Letter” I can certainly justify why this quote is not completely accurate. Adversity is merely a stimulant‚ but a person’s own character is what drives him to be successful. One of

    Adversity is what creates drive in every human being. It is the monster and fear in all of our nightmares‚ the bad‚ testing our willingness to be good‚ pushing us to fight back‚ to learn its ways‚ and to appreciate.

In the words of the Roman poet Horace: “Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which in prosperous circumstances would have lain dormant.” This is repetitive in human history‚ today as well as hundreds of years ago. In a civilization‚ the upper class of a community would have different values than the lower class due to the
