There is nothing wrong with God’s creation. Mystery and suffering only exist in the mind.
-Ramana Maharshi "Ramana Maharshi"
There is nothing wrong with God’s creation. Mystery and suffering only exist in the mind.
If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.
-Viktor Frankl
If we stop considering ourselves special on the level of physicalities, half our
sorrows will disappear by themselves. From sickness to death, events to
accidents; what happens to others, can always happen to us and our beloved
ones too... Then what's the point in grieving about them for so long?
-Deep Trivedi
God creates us free, free to be selfish, but He adds a mechanism that will penetrate our selfishness and wake us up to the presence of others in this world, and that mechanism is called suffering.
-William Nicholson
"Shadowlands"
God had one son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering.
-Saint Augustine of Hippo
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
-Helen Keller
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
To have become a deeper man is the privilege of those who have suffered.
-Oscar Wilde
The reward of suffering is experience.
-Harry S. Truman
