The two foes of human happiness are pain and boredom
The pain is sometimes preferable to the treatment
What is deservedly suffered must be borne with calmness, but when the pain is unmerited, the grief is resistless.
Throw moderation to the winds, and the greatest pleasures bring the greatest pains
Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering.
Pain and death are part of life. To reject them is to reject life itself.
You never read about the real pain. It lives where no word can travel.
Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget
falls drop by drop upon the heart
until, in our own despair, against our will,
comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.
Irreconcilables: he should stay here and conform; he should not stay here (remembering no time when he was not here, Harley could frame the second idea no more clearly than that). Another point of pain was that "here" and "not here" seemed to be not two halves of a homogeneous whole, but two dissonances.
I used to walk by the river
An old book under my arm
The river is the same as pain
It elapses mindlessly
And when will the week be over
Even when one has climbed up into those levels of bliss where pain vanishes, it still survives disguised as intolerable ecstasy.
I'd been painting rats for three years before someone said "that's a clever anagram of art" and I had to pretend I'd known that all along.
Well, I'm a painter, I was trained as a painterI seem to have spent a little less time painting than I might've doneBut it didn't transcend the feeling of playing at UFO and those sort of places with the lights and that, the fact that the group was getting bigger and bigger.
Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget
falls drop by drop upon the heart
until, in our own despair, against our will,
comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.
Yes, perhaps that was it. For decades now the picture of the world painted by the scientists had become strange, distant, unbelievable. Far easier, then, to ignore it than try to understand. Things were too complicated. Why bother? Turn on the telly, luv. Right.
I could wait patiently, but I really wish you would:
Drop everything now, meet me in the pourin' rain,
Kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain;
Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile
Hit me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down,
Give me somethin' that'll haunt me when you're not around;
Cause I see sparks fly whenever you . . . smile.
I seen nights full of pain, days of the same.
May all your joys be pure joys, and all your pain champagne.
Knowledge is pain and that is why it hurts to know.
