To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
-Oscar Wilde
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
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
-Colette
...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"
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
God had one son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering.
-Saint Augustine of Hippo
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
