The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung

-Carl Gustav Jung
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
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
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
It's easy to look at people and make quick judgements about them, their present and their pasts, but you'd be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides. What a person shows to the world is only one tiny facet of the iceburg hidden from sight. And more often then not, it's lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul.
-Sherrilyn Kenyon
"Acheron"
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Suffering is a product of limited knowledge.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
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
If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.
-Viktor Frankl
