Quotations
Suffering
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
If we stop considering ourselves special on the level of physicalities, half our
sorrows will disappear by themselves. From sickness to death, events to
accidents; what happens to others, can always happen to us and our beloved
ones too... Then what's the point in grieving about them for so long?
- Deep Trivedi
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.

Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
- Anonymous
The end is the beginning of all things, suppressed and hidden, awaiting to be released through the rhythm of pain and pleasure… Pain itself destroys pain. Suffering itself frees man from suffering.
- J. Krishnamurti
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
- Colette
Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering.
- Paulo Coelho

All sacrifice and suffering is redemptive. It is used to either teach the individual or to help others. Nothing is by chance.
- Arthur J. Russell
