Quotations
Suffering

- Friedrich Nietzsche
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
- Anonymous
The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
- Carl Gustav Jung

- 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

ones too... Then what's the point in grieving about them for so long?
- Deep Trivedi

disheartened with the pains of present...but are worried sick about the pains to
come in future.
- Deep Trivedi

- Mother Teresa
True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
- A Spiritual Leader
...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...

To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
- Oscar Wilde
