Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Quotations
Suffering
The root of all our miseries is not being mentally prepared for a situation. I cannot
understand, why don't you accept that what happens to others, can always
happen to you as well!
-Deep Trivedi
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
...when I think of you it's with tears, because no one else has such delicate hands that can reach into my soul and calm my fears...
-John Geddes
"A Familiar Rain"
Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering.
-Paulo Coelho
The more the diamond is cut, the brighter it sparkles; and in what seems hard dealing, there God has no end in view but to perfect His people.
-Thomas Guthrie
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
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
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
