Quotations
Suffering
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
Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.
-Alan Watts
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
The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung
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
...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...
-John Geddes
"A Familiar Rain"
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
All sacrifice and suffering is redemptive. It is used to either teach the individual or to help others. Nothing is by chance.

The reward of suffering is experience.
