Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
Quotations
Suffering
All sacrifice and suffering is redemptive. It is used to either teach the individual or to help others. Nothing is by chance.
-Arthur J. Russell
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
Don't look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you'll know you're dead.
-Tennessee Williams
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"
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
-Anonymous
Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us.
-Meister Eckhart "Meister Eckhart"
