Nothing is more seductive for man than his freedom of conscience. But nothing is a greater cause of suffering.
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
Quotations
Suffering
If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.
-Viktor Frankl
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
I still think that the greatest suffering is being lonely, feeling unloved, just having no one... That is the worst disease that any human being can ever experience.
-Mother Teresa
Don't look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you'll know you're dead.
-Tennessee Williams
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
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
Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dream.
-Paulo Coelho
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
-Colette
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
