It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Quotations
Suffering
If we stop considering ourselves special on the level of physicalities, half our
sorrows will disappear by themselves. From sickness to death, events to
accidents; what happens to others, can always happen to us and our beloved
ones too... Then what's the point in grieving about them for so long?
-Deep Trivedi
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"
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
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"
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
-Colette
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
-Helen Keller
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
-Helen Keller
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
