Quotations
Pain
Real pain can alone cure us of imaginary ills. We feel a thousand miseries till we are lucky enough to feel misery.
-Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Speak not harshly to anyone. Those thus addressed will retort. Painful, indeed, is vindictive speech. Blows in exchange may bruise you.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 133"
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
The aim of the wise is not to secure pleasure, but to avoid pain.
-Aristotle
If you can go through life without experiencing pain you probably haven’t been born yet.
-Neil Simon
Isn't it funny that we never look into the lives of the great people whom we
worship, to dispel the miseries from our life and see, how much pain they have
endured in their life. The truth is, we fail to understand one simple and basic
fact that as long as there is life, there will be pain; no matter however great the
person may be... Their greatness is not in having a life without hardship but
because of their ability to remain cheerful even when surrounded by miseries.
-Deep Trivedi
When you let go of past pain, believe in yourself, and follow your dreams—you can find true happiness!
-Casi McLean
Best way to get rid of pain is to have some more of it....you will feel better!!
-Anonymous
Pure and complete sorrow is as impossible as pure and complete joy.
-Leo Tolstoy
