Quotations
Suffering

The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.

-Carl Gustav Jung

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

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

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 "Acheron"

Nothing is more seductive for man than his freedom of conscience. But nothing is a greater cause of suffering.

-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky

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 "Shadowlands"

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

Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.

-Friedrich Nietzsche

If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.

-Viktor Frankl

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"
