Suffers

Famous quotes containing the word suffers:

    In general, Russia suffers from a frightening poverty in the sphere of facts and a frightening wealth of all types of arguments.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    Whoever commits to paper what he suffers becomes a melancholy author: but he becomes a serious author when he tells us what he suffered and why he now reposes in joy.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    If a being suffers there can be no moral justification for refusing to take that suffering into consideration. No matter what the nature of the being, the principle of equality requires that its suffering be counted equally with the like suffering—insofar as rough comparisons can be made—of any other being.
    Peter Singer (b. 1946)
