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
Quotations
Suffering
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 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"
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
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"
The end is the beginning of all things, suppressed and hidden, awaiting to be released through the rhythm of pain and pleasure… Pain itself destroys pain. Suffering itself frees man from suffering.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
-Colette
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.

It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.

If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.
