Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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"
The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung
Don't look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you'll know you're dead.
-Tennessee Williams
It requires more courage to suffer than to die.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
Behold the man who shields his family from all suffering. Has not his body become a willing vessel for affliction? Without good men to hold it up, the family house will fall when misfortune descends.
There are sufferings that have lost their memory and do not remember why they are suffering.
-Antonio Porchia
"Voces (Voices)"
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
