“To live, is to suffer. To survive, well, that's to find meaning in the suffer.”

“To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.”

“In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.”

“Do not avoid contact with suffering or close your eyes before suffering. Do not lose awareness of the existence of suffering in the life of the world. Find ways to be with those who are suffering by all means, including personal contact and visits, images, sounds. By such means, ...awaken yourself and others to the reality of suffering in the world. If we get in touch with the suffering of the world, and are moved by that suffering, we may come forward to help the people who are suffering.”

“We shall draw from the heart of suffering itself the means of inspiration and survival.-Sir Winston Churchill”

“Tinys do not deserve safety. If they are to prove themselves, they must suffer and die or suffer and survive.”
