The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung
Quotations
Suffering
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
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
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
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
-Anonymous
The root of all our miseries is not being mentally prepared for a situation. I cannot
understand, why don't you accept that what happens to others, can always
happen to you as well!
-Deep Trivedi
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
-Helen Keller
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
