The greatest evil is physical pain
[Saint Augustine]
Illness is the doctor whom we pay most
heed; to kindness, to knowledge we make promise only; pain we obey
[Marcel Proust]
After great pain, a formal feeling comes.
The Nerves sit ceremonious, like tombs [Emily Dickinson]
The person who grieves suffers his
passion to grow upon him; he indulges it, he loves it; but this never happens in
the case of actual pain, which no man ever willingly endured for any considerable
time [Edmund Burke]
If pain could have cured us we should
long ago have been saved [George Santayana]
When there is pain, there are no words.
All pain is the same [Toni Morrison]
