Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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.

Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering.
-Paulo Coelho
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.
