For we are born in other’s pain, And perish in our own.
Francis Thompson (1859-1907) English Poet.
Pain with the thousand teeth.
Sir William Watson (1858-1935) British poet.
Pain is the outcome of sin.
Budhha.
Pain may be said to follow pleasure, as its shadow; but the misfortune is, that the substance belongs to the shadow, and the emptiness to its cause.
Colton.
Alas! By some degree of woe we every bliss must gain; the heart can never a transport know that never feels a pain.
Lyttleton.
Pain itself is not without its alleviations. It is seldom both violent and long continued; and its pauses and intermissions become positive pleasures. It has the power of shedding a satisfaction over intervals of ease, which few enjoyments exceed.
Paley.
Pain adds rest unto pleasure, and teaches the luxury of health.
Twpper.
Nature has placed mankind under the government of two sovereign masters, pain and pleasure. It is for them to point out what we ought to do, as well as to determine what we shall do. On the one hand, the standard of right and wrong; on the other, the chain of causes and effects, are fastened to their throne.
Bentham.
Pain and pleasure, like light and darkness, succeed each other; and he only who knows how to accommodate himself to their returns, and can wisely extract the good from the evil, knows how to live.
Sterne.
The same refinement which brings us new pleasures, exposes us to new pains.
Bulwer.
There was never yet philosopher that could endure the toothache patiently, however they have writ the style of gods, and made a pish at chance and sufferance.
Shakespeare
The most painful part of our bodily pain is that which is bodiless or immaterial, namely our impatience, and the delusion that it will last forever.
Richter.
A man of pleasure is a man of pains.
Young.
They talk of short-lived pleasures: be it so; pain dies as quickly, and lets her weary prisoner go; the fiercest agonies have shortest reign.
Bryant.
Pain is the deepest thing we have in our nature, and union through pain and suffering has always seemed more real and holy than any other.
Hallam.
For all the happiness mankind can gain
Is not in pleasure, but in rest from pain.
One fire burns out another’s burning;
One pain is lessen’d by another’s anguish.
Nothing begins, and nothing ends,
That is not paid with moan;
For we are born in other’s pain,
And perish in our own.
