Quotations
Suffering
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
God had one son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering.
-Saint Augustine of Hippo
The root cause of all miseries lie hidden in "Me and Mine". If it is my wealth, then
the pain of losing it, if it is my body, then the affliction of sickness... Whereas in
reality, there is nothing yours other than the feeling of your "Being".
-Deep Trivedi
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
"Great Expectations"
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
