Quotations
Suffering
It's easy to look at people and make quick judgements about them, their present and their pasts, but you'd be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides. What a person shows to the world is only one tiny facet of the iceburg hidden from sight. And more often then not, it's lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul.
- Sherrilyn Kenyon
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
I still think that the greatest suffering is being lonely, feeling unloved, just having no one... That is the worst disease that any human being can ever experience.
- Mother Teresa
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
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
- Colette
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
- Woody Allen
To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
- Oscar Wilde
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
- Anonymous
It is the law of nature that when adversity strikes, nature invariably provides
us with the strength to endure that pain. Look for yourself, we are not that
disheartened with the pains of present...but are worried sick about the pains to
come in future.
- Deep Trivedi
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
