I suffer because my interactions with others do not meet the expectations I did not know I had.
Jim McDonald
Ultimately, in the battle against lies and violence, truth and love have no other weapon than the witness of suffering.
Pope Benedict XVI
Love is something worth suffering for...

John Geddes
I want to see beauty. In the ugly, in the sink, in the suffering, in the daily, in all the days before I die, the moments before I sleep.

Paul Brunton
Suffering usually relates to wanting things to be different from the way they are.
Allan Lokos
O world, world when I was younger I thought there was some order governing you and your deeds. But now you seem to be a labyrinth of errors, a frightful desert, a den of wild beasts, a game in which men move in circlesa stony field, a meadow full of serpents, a flowering but barren orchard, a spring of cares, a river of tears, a sea of suffering, a vain hope.
Fernando de Rojas
The sting of her abandonment had not lessened through the years, and I suspected it would never go away. Occasionally, I could see agony in her eyes, the shadows that flickered in the background. If I could, I'd take her pain and make it my own. I'd swallow it like a bitter pill and live with the consequences.
T.J. Forrester
Damn it, how will I ever get out of this labyrinth?
Simón Bolívar
-no girl had ever moved me with a story of spiritual suffering and so beautifully her soul showing out radiant as an angel wandering in hell and the hell the selfsame streets Id roamed in watching, watching for someone just like her and never dreaming the darkness and the mystery and eventuality of our meeting in eternity
Jack Kerouac

Long you must suffer, knowing not what,until suddenly out of spitefully chewed fruit your suffering's taste comes forth in you.Then you will love almost instantly what's tasted. No one will ever talk you out of it.
Rainer Maria Rilke
...the real absurdity is that to love is to suffer, but the reverse isn't always true...
In light of heaven, the worst suffering on earth, a life full of the most atrocious tortures on earth, will be seen to be no more serious than one night in an inconvenient hotel.
