Suffering
The reward of suffering is experience.
- Harry S. Truman

reality, there is nothing yours other than the feeling of your "Being".
- Deep Trivedi
You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.
- Hermann Hesse
Suffering has been stronger than all other teaching, and has taught me to understand what your heart used to be. I have been bent and broken, but - I hope - into a better shape.
- Charles Dickens
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
- Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
