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
Quotations
Suffering
You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.
-Hermann Hesse
It requires more courage to suffer than to die.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
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
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
-Anonymous
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
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung
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
