Feel Pain

Famous quotes containing the words feel and/or pain:

“Do I not feel the hunger so acutely
that I would rather die than look
into its face?”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“Every life and every childhood is filled with frustrations; we cannot imagine it otherwise, for even the best mother cannot satisfy all her child’s wishes and needs. It is not the suffering caused by frustration, however, that leads to emotional illness, but rather the fact that the child is forbidden by the parents to experience and articulate this suffering, the pain felt at being wounded.”
—Alice Miller (20th century)
