"Griffin and Sabine"
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.
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa
"The Book of Disquiet"
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
