Quotations
Pain

-Jeb Dickerson
If life is a journey then let my soul travel and share your pain.
-Santosh Kalwar
If you can go through life without experiencing pain you probably haven’t been born yet.

"The Book of Disquiet"
Pain will come with time, but time will heal the pain.
-Anthony Liccione
Pure and complete sorrow is as impossible as pure and complete joy.
-Leo Tolstoy
There is the solitude of suffering, when you go through darkness that is lonely, intense, and terrible. Words become powerless to express your pain; what others hear from your words is so distant and different from what you are actually suffering.
- John O'donohue
"Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom"
The pain of the flesh is naught to that of the heart.
-Jacqueline Carey
"Kushiel's Chosen"
Isn't it funny that we never look into the lives of the great people whom we
worship, to dispel the miseries from our life and see, how much pain they have
endured in their life. The truth is, we fail to understand one simple and basic
fact that as long as there is life, there will be pain; no matter however great the
person may be... Their greatness is not in having a life without hardship but
because of their ability to remain cheerful even when surrounded by miseries.
-Deep Trivedi
