Pain and joy are like light and darkness; they are two sides of the same medal. They are interdependent and inseparably connected to each other.
-Trinley Thaye Dorje "Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje"
Pain and joy are like light and darkness; they are two sides of the same medal. They are interdependent and inseparably connected to each other.

- John O'donohue
"Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom"
If carefully seen, when shocked or hurt, if you are able to express your feelings,
you are relieved of it and the same when mistakenly suppressed; then that pain
in its perverted form becomes your destiny.
-Deep Trivedi
To truly laugh, you must be able to take your pain and play with it.

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
If you can go through life without experiencing pain you probably haven’t been born yet.
-Neil Simon
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
Pain will come with time, but time will heal the pain.
-Anthony Liccione
