“ignore the pain, play through it.”
“I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion and elimination of ignorance, selfishness and greed.”
“Pain is a message, and you can choose to ignore that message.”
“Creators of history always play with our impotence and our ignorance.”
“We cannot ignore our pain and feel compassion for it at the same time.”
“But the upside of painful knowledge is so much greater than the downside of blissful ignorance.”
