Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
Quotations
Suffering
The root of all our miseries is not being mentally prepared for a situation. I cannot
understand, why don't you accept that what happens to others, can always
happen to you as well!
-Deep Trivedi
Suffering is a product of limited knowledge.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Nothing is more seductive for man than his freedom of conscience. But nothing is a greater cause of suffering.
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
The root cause of all miseries lie hidden in "Me and Mine". If it is my wealth, then
the pain of losing it, if it is my body, then the affliction of sickness... Whereas in
reality, there is nothing yours other than the feeling of your "Being".
-Deep Trivedi
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
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.
-Scriptures "Tirukkural 103:1029-1030"
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Don't look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you'll know you're dead.
-Tennessee Williams
