Nothing is more seductive for man than his freedom of conscience. But nothing is a greater cause of suffering.
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
There is nothing wrong with God’s creation. Mystery and suffering only exist in the mind.
Behold the man who shields his family from all suffering. Has not his body become a willing vessel for affliction? Without good men to hold it up, the family house will fall when misfortune descends.
You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.
-Hermann Hesse
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.

-Charles Dickens
"Great Expectations"
The root cause of all miseries lie hidden in "Me and Mine". If it is my wealth, then
the pain of losing it, if it is my body, then the affliction of sickness... Whereas in

-Deep Trivedi
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
