"It takes courage to live through suffering;..." - Quote by C S Lewis

“Well, you know how it feels if you begin hoping for something that you want desperately badly; you almost fight against the hope because it is too good to be true; you've been disappointed so often before.”

“I thought I could describe a state; make a map of sorrow. Sorrow, hoever, turns out to be not a state but a process.”

“Friendship is born at that moment when one man says to another: "What! You too? I thought that no one but myself . . ."”

“The love that you withhold is the pain that you carry.”

“Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.”

“A wretched soul, bruised with adversity, We bid be quiet when we hear it cry; But were we burdened with light weight of pain, As much or more we should ourselves complain.”

“Be brave. Even if you're not pretend to be.No one can tell the difference.”

“You've got to go out on a limb sometimes because that's where the fruit is.”

“Sometimes you must suffer through something to defeat your fear of it.”
