Hello,
I'm new here, so please tell me if I'm not doing
the right thing.
I'm always thankful to 'a word a day' information.

I'm not sure if this is an appropriate place to
ask my question, but a friend of mine is badly
in need of the following information. He wonders
who wrote the following where. I would be much
obliged if you could give me the information.
"The most important thing for us to keep in our mind when a life storm
breaks is that, no matter how violent, it is only temporary, and that
behind the clouds the sun is always shining."

Thank you very very much.
Itaru Nagano

Sorry, nagano, I don't recognise the quotation, but I'd just like to say welcome aboard. Is that a Japanese name? It's always good to get another perspective, so don't be shy.

Welcome, nagano! Yes, this is the perfect place to ask things.

I tried clicking on the two thoughtfully-provided links and could not bring either one up. So, I tried something else,
which I recommend to you: go to whatever your server has where you can do a Search (mine is on my Home page), and
just type in quotations, and hit Go or Enter (whatever).
This gave me too many to put over here. Good luck!

Here is a quotation site which allows you to search by keyword. And a whole lot more!

I don't know where this E-mail will go, to nagano or Bingley. But no matter whoever, please tell me how can I post my own perspective in this forum? Because I am new here, and I am a chinese girl, I want to learn English better. Thanks!
