As one grows weaker one is less susceptible to suffering. There is less hurt because there is less to hurt.
Jack LondonTags: suffering weak weakness hurt
We are healed of a suffering only by experiencing it to the full.
Marcel ProustTags: suffering healing experiencing
For the first time his mind grasped the fact that when life has sentenced you to suffer, the sentence is neither a fancy nor a threat, but you are dragged to the rack, and you are tortured, and there is no marvelous rescue at the last moment, no awakening as from a bad dream. He felt it as a foreboding which struck him with terror.
Jens Peter JacobsenPerhaps watching someone you love suffer can teach you even more than suffering yourself can.
Dodie SmithPain is a relatively objective, physical phenomenon; suffering is our psychological resistance to what happens. Events may create physical pain, but they do not in themselves create suffering. Resistance creates suffering. Stress happens when your mind resists what is... The only problem in your life is your mind's resistance to life as it unfolds.

Demon or not, it didn't matter, suffering was everywhere he looked.
BromTags: suffering

Philip YanceyTags: love christianity suffering jesus
Suffering is one very long moment. We cannot divide it by seasons. We can only record its moods, and chronicle their return. With us time itself does not progress. It revolves. It seems to circle round one centre of pain.
Oscar WildeTags: suffering depression
We who are like senseless children shrink from suffering, but love its causes. We hurt ourselves; our pain is self-inflicted! Why should others be the object of our anger?
