I did not think to shed a tear In all my miseries; but thou hast forc'd me, out of thy honest truth, to play the woman Picture Quote #1

Is there life before death? That's chalked up in Ballymurphy. Competence with pain, coherent miseries, a bite and a sup, we hug our little destiny again Picture Quote #1

There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures Picture Quote #1

Windy attorneys to their client woes, airy succeeders of intestate joys, poor breathing orators of miseries! Let them have scopes: though what they do impart help nothing else, yet do they ease the heart Picture Quote #1

Consider that the trials and troubles, the calamities and miseries, the crosses and losses that you meet with in this world, are all the hell that ever you shall have Picture Quote #1

To doubt is worse than to have lost; And to despair is but to antedate those miseries that must fall on us Picture Quote #1

Life is so full of miseries, minor and major; they press so close upon us at every step of the way, that it is hardly worthwhile to call one another’s attention to their presence Picture Quote #1

Anxiety is the poison of human life; the parent of many sins and of more miseries. In a world where everything is doubtful, and where we may be disappointed, and be blessed in disappointment, why this restless stir and commotion of mind? Can it alter the cause, or unravel the mystery of human events? Picture Quote #1

There is something ridiculous and even quite indecent in an individual claiming to be happy. Still more a people or a nation making such a claim. The pursuit of happiness... is without any question the most fatuous which could possibly be undertaken. This lamentable phrase the pursuit of happiness is responsible for a good part of the ills and miseries of the modern world Picture Quote #1

The revolution taught me not to be consoled by other people’s miseries, not to feel thankful because so many others had suffered more. Pain and loss, like love and joy, are unique and personal; they cannot be modified by comparison to others Picture Quote #1

Should the king in exile pretend he is happy there? Should he not seek his own country? His miseries are his ally; they urge him on. Let them grow, if need be. But do not forsake the secret of life; do not despise those kingly desires. We abandon the most important journey of our lives when we abandon desire. We leave our hearts by the side of the road and head off in the direction of fitting in, getting by, being productive, what have you. Whatever we might gain – money, position, the approval of others, or just absence of the discontent self – it’s not worth it Picture Quote #1

If you had to relive your life exactly as it was – same successes and failures, same happiness, same miseries, same mixture of comedy and tragedy – would you want to? Was it worth it? Picture Quote #1

You are mine. I recognize you. We twist our souls around each other’s miseries. It is that which makes us family Picture Quote #1

How much harder it is to bear one’s splendor than one’s miseries! Picture Quote #1

Let no man dare, when I am dead. to charge me with dishonor; let no man attaint my memory by believing that I could have engaged in any cause but that of my country’s liberty and independence, or that I could have become the pliant minion of power in the oppression or the miseries of my countrymen Picture Quote #1

There are things you can describe in life and things you just can’t. There are dangers and adventures, miseries and fear that you can tell about… well, then there’s hope and joy and love – and those are beyond the power of words to describe Picture Quote #1
