Suffering/philosophy

Famous quotes containing the words suffering and/or philosophy:

    No human beings more dangerous than those who have suffered for a belief: the great persecutors are recruited from the martyrs not quite beheaded. Far from diminishing the appetite for power, suffering exasperates it.
    E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)

    Of your philosophy you make no use
    If you give place to accidental evils.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
