Quotations
Suffering
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
- Helen Keller
It is the law of nature that when adversity strikes, nature invariably provides
us with the strength to endure that pain. Look for yourself, we are not that
disheartened with the pains of present...but are worried sick about the pains to
come in future.
- Deep Trivedi
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
- Sigmund Freud
You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.
- Hermann Hesse
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
- Anonymous
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
- Oscar Wilde
The end is the beginning of all things, suppressed and hidden, awaiting to be released through the rhythm of pain and pleasure… Pain itself destroys pain. Suffering itself frees man from suffering.
- J. Krishnamurti
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
- Friedrich Nietzsche
True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
