-Friedrich Nietzsche
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
-Anonymous
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
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
reality, there is nothing yours other than the feeling of your "Being".
-Deep Trivedi
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
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
...when I think of you it's with tears, because no one else has such delicate hands that can reach into my soul and calm my fears...
