Quotations
Suffering
All sacrifice and suffering is redemptive. It is used to either teach the individual or to help others. Nothing is by chance.
-Arthur J. Russell
Behold the man who shields his family from all suffering. Has not his body become a willing vessel for affliction? Without good men to hold it up, the family house will fall when misfortune descends.
-Scriptures "Tirukkural 103:1029-1030"
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
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
The root of all our miseries is not being mentally prepared for a situation. I cannot
understand, why don't you accept that what happens to others, can always
happen to you as well!
-Deep Trivedi
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
If there is meaning in life at all, then there must be meaning in suffering.
-Viktor Frankl
