Quotations
Suffering
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
- Matthew Fox
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
Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.
- Alan Watts
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
- Sigmund Freud
The more the diamond is cut, the brighter it sparkles; and in what seems hard dealing, there God has no end in view but to perfect His people.
- Thomas Guthrie
There is nothing wrong with God’s creation. Mystery and suffering only exist in the mind.
- Ramana Maharshi
God creates us free, free to be selfish, but He adds a mechanism that will penetrate our selfishness and wake us up to the presence of others in this world, and that mechanism is called suffering.
- William Nicholson
God had one son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering.
- Saint Augustine of Hippo
True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
- A Spiritual Leader
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
