-Friedrich Nietzsche

-Carl Gustav Jung
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
If we stop considering ourselves special on the level of physicalities, half our
sorrows will disappear by themselves. From sickness to death, events to
accidents; what happens to others, can always happen to us and our beloved
ones too... Then what's the point in grieving about them for so long?
-Deep Trivedi
