To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
-Oscar Wilde
Quotations
Suffering
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
-Helen Keller
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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
The reward of suffering is experience.
-Harry S. Truman
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
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
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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"
