Aussprache: Ne bylo by schastya, da neschastye pomoglo
A uniquely Russian proverb meaning that good fortune often arises from misfortune. Reflects the deeply fatalistic streak in Russian culture — the belief that suffering has redemptive value. Connected to the Orthodox Christian concept that trials lead to grace.
