Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dream.
-Paulo Coelho
Quotations
Suffering
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
-Colette
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
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 "Guru Tegh Bahadur"
To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
-Oscar Wilde
The end is the beginning of all things, suppressed and hidden, awaiting to be released through the rhythm of pain and pleasure… Pain itself destroys pain. Suffering itself frees man from suffering.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
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
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
...when I think of you it's with tears, because no one else has such delicate hands that can reach into my soul and calm my fears...
-John Geddes
"A Familiar Rain"
