Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.
Pain
The universal teacher and the path to growth
Do not use punishment on someone as retribution, but for their own good, to deter them from doing something again.
The wound is the place where the Light enters you.
What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle.
Pain is the great teacher of mankind. Beneath its breath souls develop.
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
The pain passes, but the beauty remains.
Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.
There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.
We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.
The same hammer that shatters glass forges steel.
Pain makes man think. Thought makes man wise. Wisdom makes life endurable.
