Pure and complete sorrow is as impossible as pure and complete joy.
-Leo Tolstoy
Quotations
Pain
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
When you let go of past pain, believe in yourself, and follow your dreams—you can find true happiness!
-Casi McLean
We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey.
-Kenji Miyazawa
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
Pain will come with time, but time will heal the pain.
-Anthony Liccione
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"
Pain will leave you, when you let go.
-Jeremy Aldana
Speak not harshly to anyone. Those thus addressed will retort. Painful, indeed, is vindictive speech. Blows in exchange may bruise you.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 133"
