Quotations
Suffering
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.
-Alan Watts
The reward of suffering is experience.
-Harry S. Truman
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
God had one son on earth without sin, but never one without suffering.
-Saint Augustine of Hippo
We are never so defenceless against suffering as when we love.
-Sigmund Freud
When is life an evil? When it offers a man nothing but suffering and pain.
-Napoleon Bonaparte
Suffering is a product of limited knowledge.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
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
