If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.
-Viktor Frankl
Quotations
Suffering
Suffering is a product of limited knowledge.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
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
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
-Helen Keller
It requires more courage to suffer than to die.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
I believe there are more urgent and honorable occupations than the incomparable waste of time we call suffering.
-Colette
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
It's easy to look at people and make quick judgements about them, their present and their pasts, but you'd be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides. What a person shows to the world is only one tiny facet of the iceburg hidden from sight. And more often then not, it's lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul.
-Sherrilyn Kenyon
"Acheron"
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.
-Charles Dickens
"Great Expectations"
