Quotations
Suffering
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
-Helen Keller
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.

-Anonymous
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
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
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
