-Woody Allen
Quotations
Suffering
The end is the beginning of all things, suppressed and hidden, awaiting to be released through the rhythm of pain and pleasure… Pain itself destroys pain. Suffering itself frees man from suffering.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Tegh Bahadur"
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
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 product of limited knowledge.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
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"
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
