The root of all our miseries is not being mentally prepared for a situation. I cannot
understand, why don't you accept that what happens to others, can always
happen to you as well!
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Suffering
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
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
-Colette
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Suffering has been stronger than all other teaching, and has taught me to understand what your heart used to be. I have been bent and broken, but - I hope - into a better shape.
-Charles Dickens
"Great Expectations"
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The more the diamond is cut, the brighter it sparkles; and in what seems hard dealing, there God has no end in view but to perfect His people.
-Thomas Guthrie
Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us.
-Meister Eckhart "Meister Eckhart"
True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Tegh Bahadur"
It is the law of nature that when adversity strikes, nature invariably provides
us with the strength to endure that pain. Look for yourself, we are not that
disheartened with the pains of present...but are worried sick about the pains to
come in future.
-Deep Trivedi
