“The world is full of people suffering from the effects of their own unlived life. They become bitter, critical, or rigid, not because the world is cruel to them, but because they have betrayed their own inner possibilities. The artist who never makes art becomes cynical about those who do. The lover who never risks loving mocks romance. The thinker who never commits to a philosophy sneers at belief itself. And yet, all of them suffer, because deep down they know: the life they mock is the life they were meant to live.”

Author:Carl Gustav Jung

“No one wants to suffer, yet it is suffering that gives life meaning and depth.”

“Your life, Katerina, will be spent in painful brooding over your own feelings, your own heroism, and your own suffering. But in the end that suffering will be softened and will pass into contemplation of the fulfillment of a bold and proud design. Yea, proud it certainly is, and desperate in any case, but a triumph for you. And the consciousness of it all will at last be a source of complete satisfaction and will make you resigned to something else.”
