Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering.
-Paulo Coelho
To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
-Oscar Wilde
Suffering is a product of limited knowledge.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
-Helen Keller
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.
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'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"
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.
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
