Quotations
Suffering
The reward of suffering is experience.
-Harry S. Truman
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
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
Don't look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you'll know you're dead.
-Tennessee Williams
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
Suffering has been stronger than all other teaching, and has taught me to understand what your heart used to be. I have been bent and broken, but - I hope - into a better shape.
-Charles Dickens
"Great Expectations"
Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dream.
-Paulo Coelho
Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.
-Alan Watts
