There were times when some even considered abandoning the island. But they stayed on. They stayed and survived. Icelanders will tell you that only the fittest survived, but that is only half the story, because survival requires another key attribute: stubbornness. And Icelanders have it in spades. It is a national trait, and they view it not as a weakness but as a virtue. It comes from experiencing hardship and enduring it. It means finding satisfaction in a simple task done well and sticking to it; finding comfort and solace in family and kinship and being bound by those familial bonds and duties. And perhaps most important of all, it means believing in the independence of the individual as part of the fabric of nationhood, and fighting for that independence. Put simply, the country has values.”<\/i><\/p>\n Aldrei nokkurn t\u00edmann hef \u00e9g s\u00e9\u00f0 “m\u00e9r” l\u00edst jafn vel og \u00fearna. \u00derj\u00f3skan, fullkomnunar\u00e1r\u00e1ttan, fj\u00f6lskyldub\u00f6ndin.
