Wisdom comes alone through suffering.
Aeschylus
There is no disgrace in an enemy suffering ill at an enemy's hand, when you hate mutually.
Aeschylus
Justice turns the scale, bringing to some learning through suffering.
Aeschylus
We are healed from suffering only by experiencing it to the full.
Marcel Proust
Those whose suffering is due to love are, as we say of certain invalids, their own physicians.
Marcel Proust
If suffering brings wisdom, I would wish to be less wise.
William Butler Yeats
If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
It is not actual suffering but the taste of better things which excites people to revolt.
Eric Hoffer
There's nothing wrong in suffering, if you suffer for a purpose. Our revolution didn't abolish danger or death. It simply made danger and death worthwhile.
H. G. Wells
Think occasionally of the suffering of which you spare yourself the sight.
Albert Schweitzer
Many men are deeply moved by the mere semblance of suffering in a woman; they take the look of pain for a sign of constancy or of love.
Honore De Balzac
Few can believe that suffering, especially by others, is in vain. Anything that is disagreeable must surely have beneficial economic effects.
John Kenneth Galbraith
The salvation of the world is in man's suffering.
William Faulkner
Of what worth are convictions that bring not suffering?
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Happiness is the absence of suffering. I think it's an interesting way of looking at it. I think the absence of suffering exists very rarely in the world we live in.
Julie Christie
But truth is most likely to be exhibited by the general sense of contemporaries, when the feelings of the heart can be expressed without suffering itself to be disguised by the prejudices of man.
Mercy Otis Warren
It is by suffering that human beings become angels.
Victor Hugo
The only medicine for suffering, crime, and all other woes of mankind, is wisdom. Teach a man to read and write, and you have put into his hands the great keys of the wisdom box. But it is quite another thing to open the box.
Thomas Huxley
How little remains of the man I once was, save the memory of him! But remembering is only a new form of suffering.
Charles Baudelaire
A lot of compelling stories in the world aren't being told, and the fact that people don't know about them compounds the suffering.
Anderson Cooper
