He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. Aeschylus Wisdom Suffering Learning
Don't look forward to the day you stop suffering, because when it comes you'll know you're dead. Tennessee Williams Suffering
True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us. Socrates World Wisdom
There is no despair so absolute as that which comes with the first moments of our first great sorrow, when we have not yet known what it is to have suffered and be healed, to have despaired and have recovered hope. George Eliot Hope
To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him. Buddha Mind Enlightenment Joy Wisdom Happiness Health Virtue
