Suffer Quotes
-
No matter what cause one defends, it will suffer permanent disgrace if one resorts to blind attacks on crowds of innocent people.
Albert Camus
-
I would suffer all the humiliation, all the torture, the absolute ostracism and even death, to prevent violence.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
-
What will a man not do when frantic with love? To what baseness will he not demean himself? What pangs will he not make others suffer, so that he may ease his selfish heart?
William Makepeace Thackeray
-
Quietly endure, silently suffer and patiently wait.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
-
Humanity must suffer very much before it comes to an understanding of the advantage of unity.
Nicholas Roerich
-
The angel of death, she said proudly, touched me when I was a child, with the exact same illness as now, but I screwed him, even though I was just a girl. And you'll see, I'll screw him again, because I know how to suffer. I learned at the age of ten, I haven't stopped since. And if you know how to suffer, the angel respects you, after a while he goes away. As she spoke she pulled up her dress and showed me the injured leg like the relic of an old battle. She smacked it, observing me with a fixed half-smile on her lips and terrified eyes.
Elena Ferrante
-
Life isn't easy, no matter where you are. You'll make choices you think are right, and then suffer for them.
Sarah J. Maas
-
But in order to speak about all and to all, one has to speak of what all know and of the reality common to us all. The seas, rains, necessity, desire, the struggle against death--these are things that unite us all. We resemble one another in what we see together, in what we suffer together. Dreams change from individual, but the reality of the world is common to us all. Striving towards realism is therefore legitimate, for it is basically related to the artistic adventure.
Albert Camus
-
Even there, in the mines, underground, I may find a human heart in another convict and murderer by my side, and I may make friends with him, for even there one may live and love and suffer. One may thaw and revive a frozen heart in that convict, one may wait upon him for years, and at last bring up from the dark depths a lofty soul, a feeling, suffering creature; one may bring forth an angel, create a hero! There are so many of them, hundreds of them, and we are all to blame for them. [...] If they drive God from the earth, we shall shelter Him underground.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
-
If you sisters let Nancy Drew go to France, you will suffer and she will tool
Carolyn Keene
-
You do learn from the things that you suffer. I made sure I took it all in. But instead of trying to hide that and put some fluffy fun record together, I went with how I felt.
Chris Cagle
-
That might have a lot to do with it, but you know, I probably don't show fear, but I suffer from fear like everyone else.
Steve Irwin
-
There are people who are willing to suffer and swallow their tears at leisure, and God will no doubt reward them in heaven for their resignation; but those who have the will to struggle strike back at fate in retaliation for the blows they receive.
Alexandre Dumas
-
This is what it means to be a slave; to be abused and bear it; compelled by violence to suffer wrong.
Euripides
-
God Himself heals the proud. This means that inner sorrows (by which pride is healed) are sent to us by God, for the proud man will not suffer anything from others. But the humble person will endure everything, and will always say, 'I deserve this.'
Ambrose of Optina
-
Our experience is that many people manage to give up for a while and then suffer a relapse.
Brian Jones
The Rolling Stones
-
Our bodies are always exposed to Satan. The maladies I suffer are not natural, but Devil's spells.
Martin Luther
-
Do to us what you will, and we will still love you. Bomb our homes and threaten our children, and as difficult as it is, we will still love you. But we assured that we'll wear you down by our capacity to suffer, and one day we will win our freedom. We will not only win freedom for ourselves, we will so appeal to your heart and conscience that we will win you in the process, and our victory will be a double victory.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
-
You who suffer because you love, love still more. To die of love, is to live by it.
Victor Hugo
-
There is no part of government which cannot better suffer derangement than the ballot. If you strike the ballot with disease, it is heart disease.
Henry Ward Beecher
-
We will suffer a sharp painful disullisionment before we fully surrender. When people really see themselves as the Lord sees them, it is not the terribly offensive sins of the fleshthat shock them, but the awful nature of the pride of their own hearts opposing Jesus Christ. When they see themselves in the light of the Lord, the shame, the horror, and desperate conviction hit home for them.
Oswald Chambers
-
Souls are punished when they have gone forth from the body, some wandering among us, some going to hot or cold places of the earth, some harassed by spirits. Under all circumstances they suffer with the irrational part of their nature, with which they also sinned. For its sake there subsists that shadowy body which is seen about graves, especially the graves of evil livers.
Sallust
