Encyclopedia entry
Life's a forge! Yes, and hammer and anvil, too! You'll be
roasted, smelted, and pounded, and you'll scarce know what's
happening to you. But stand boldly to it! Metal's worthless
till it's shaped and tempered! More labor than luck. Face
the pounding, don't fear the proving; and you'll stand well
against any hammer and anvil.
