The best survivors spend almost no time, especially in emergencies, getting
upset about what has been lost, or feeling distressed about things
going badly....
Life's best survivors can be both positive and negative, both optimistic and pessimistic at the same time.

hits a pedestrian.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
Frank Herbert, Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear,

A human being can stand any amount of pain.

freedom diminishes as numbers increase. ...The human question is not how many
can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for
those who do survive.
Frank Herbert, Dune
Humans live best when each has his place, when each
knows where he belongs in the scheme of things.

the person.

"Productiveness is your acceptance of morality,
your recognition of the fact that you choose to live—that
productive work is the process by which man's
consciousness controls his existence, a constant process
of acquiring knowledge and shaping matter to fit one's
purpose, of translating an idea into physical form,
of remaking the earth in the image of one's values—that
all work is creative work ft done by a thinking
mind, and no work is creative if done by a blank who
repeats in uncritical stupor a routine he has learned
from others—that your work is yours to choose, and the
choice is as wide as your mind, that nothing
more is possible to you and nothing less is human—that
to cheat your way into a job bigger than your
mind can handle is to become a fear corroded ape on
borrowed motions and borrowed time, and to
settle down into a job that requires less than your
mind's full capacity is to cut your motor and sentence
yourself to another kind of motion: decay—that your
work is the process of achieving your values, and to
lose your ambition for values is to lose your ambition
to live—that your body is a machine, but your mind
is its driver, and you must drive as far as your mind
will take you, with achievement as the goal of your
road—that the man who has no purpose is a machine that
coasts downhill at the mercy of any boulder to
crash in the first chance ditch, that the man who
stifles his mind is a stalled machine slowly going to rust,
that the man who lets a leader prescribe his course is
a wreck being towed to the scrap heap, and the
man who makes another man his goal is a hitchhiker no
driver should ever pick up—that your work is the
purpose of your life, and you must speed past any
killer who assumes the right to stop you, that any value
you might find outside your work, any other loyalty or
love, can be only travelers you choose to share
your journey and must be travelers going on their own
power in the same direction...'
Ayn Rand
"Man's mind is his basic tool of survival. Life
is given to him, survival is not. His body is given to him, its sustenance is not. His mind is given to him, its
content is not. To remain alive, he must act, and before he can act he must know the nature and purpose of his
action. He cannot obtain his food without a knowledge of food and of the way to obtain it. He cannot
dig a ditch—or build a cyclotron—without a knowledge of his aim and of the means to achieve it.
To remain alive, he must think.
"But to think is an act of choice. The key to
what you so recklessly call 'human nature,' the open secret you live with, yet dread to name, is the fact that man
is a being of volitional consciousness. Reason does not work automatically; thinking is not a mechanical
process; the connections of logic are not made by instinct. The function of your stomach, lungs or heart
is automatic; the function of your mind is not. In any hour and issue of your life, you are free to think or
to evade that effort. But you are not free to escape from your nature, from the fact that reason is your
means of survival—so that for you, who are a human being, the question 'to be or not to be' is the
question 'to think or not to think.' …
