The pain of the flesh is naught to that of the heart.

Quotations
Pain
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 is sometimes the cost of a meaningful existence. I can handle that.
-Jeb Dickerson
There is the solitude of suffering, when you go through darkness that is lonely, intense, and terrible. Words become powerless to express your pain; what others hear from your words is so distant and different from what you are actually suffering.
- John O'donohue
"Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom"
If you can go through life without experiencing pain you probably haven’t been born yet.
-Neil Simon
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
Best way to get rid of pain is to have some more of it....you will feel better!!
-Anonymous
There are ships sailing to many ports, but not a single one goes where life is not painful.
-Fernando Pessoa
"The Book of Disquiet"
There’s nothing more painful than remembering something happy while you are distressed.
-Dante Alighieri
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
