Thich Nhat Hanh
“Suffering is not enough. Life is both dreadful and wonderful...How can I smile when I am filled with so much sorrow? It is natural--you need to smile to your sorrow because you are more than your sorrow.”
Thich Nhat Hanh

Kahlil Gibran
“Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.”
Kahlil Gibran

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.”
Rumi

Kahlil Gibran
“Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution.”
Kahlil Gibran

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“My friend, you thought you lost Him;
that all your life you've been separated from Him.
Filled with wonder, you've always looked outside for Him,
and haven't searched within your own house.”
Rumi Jalalu'l-Din
