Pain And Pleasure Quotes - Page 5

• Certainly it is wrong to be cruel to animals and the destruction of a whole species can be a great evil. The capacity for feelings of pleasure and pain and for the form of life of which animals are capable clearly impose duties of compassion and humanity in their case.

  John Rawls

• But Philip was impatient with himself; he called to mind his idea of the pattern of life: the unhappiness he had suffered was no more than part of a decoration which was elaborate and beautiful; he told himself strenuously that he must accept with gaiety everything, dreariness and excitement, pleasure and pain, because it added to the richness of the design.

• Those who die, merely suffering the woes of life like cats and dogs, are they human beings? The worthy are those who, even when agitated by the sharp interaction of pleasure and pain, are discriminating and, knowing them to be of an evanescent nature, become passionately devoted to the Atman. This is all the difference between human beings and animals.

  Swami Vivekananda

• Pain and pleasure are transitory; endure all dualities with calmness, while trying at the same time to remove their hold. Imagination is the door through which disease as well as healing enters. Disbelieve in the reality of sickness even when you are ill [...].The power of unfulfilled desires is the root of all man's slavery.

  Sri Yukteswar Giri

  Pain, Philosophical, Healing

• Within minutes my 115-mile walk through the desert hills becomes a thing apart, a disjunct reality on the far side of a bottomless abyss, immediately beyond physical recollection.But it's all still there in my heart and soul. The walk, the hills, the sky, the solitary pain and pleasure-they will grow larger, sweeter, lovelier in the days to come, like a treasure found and then, voluntarily, surrendered. Returned to the mountains with my blessing. It leaves a golden glowing on the mind.

  Edward Abbey

  Pain, Heart, Blessing

• La vida humana, eso le parecía lo único que valía la pena investigar. Comparada con ella no había nada más valioso. Era cierto que mientras uno observaba la vida en su curioso crisol de dolor y placer, no podía ponerse sobre el rostro una máscara de cristal, ni evitar que los vapores sulfurosos perturbaran el cerebro y enturbiaran la imaginación con fantasías monstruosas y sueños deformes.

• And while one is brought up with luxury and caresses, and is thrown bewildered and despairing into a dark pit, another is lifted from the pit and raised to a throne where a jeweled crown is placed on his head. The world has no shame in doing this; it is prompt to hand out both pleasure and pain and has no need of us an our doings.

• My main disappointment was always that a book had to end. And then what? But I don't think I was ever disappointed by the books. I must have been what any author would consider an ideal reader. I felt every pain and pleasure suffered or enjoyed by all the characters. Oh, but I identified!

• 'You hate America, don't you?'
  'That would be as silly as loving it,' I said. 'It's impossible for me to get emotional about it, because real estate doesn't interest me. It's no doubt a great flaw in my personality, but I can't think in terms of boundaries. Those imaginary lines are as unreal to me as elves and pixies. I can't believe that they mark the end or the beginning of anything of real concern to a human soul. Virtues and vices, pleasures and pains cross boundaries at will.'

• De cuatro ríos infernales que desembocan/ En el lago ardiente sus torrentes torvos;/ Estigia aborrecida el torrente del odio mortal,/Aquerón triste del dolor, negro y profundo;/Cocito, llamado del lamento fuerte/ Oído en el torrente lastimero; Phlegethon feroz/ Cuyas olas de torrente el fuego inflaman de rabia./ Lejos de éstos, una corriente lenta y silenciosa,/ Rodea el río del olvido/ Su laberinto acuoso, del que quien bebe,/ Olvida su estado y su ser anteriores,/ Olvida tanto la alegría como la pena, el placer y el dolor.

• The truth is all around you, plain to behold. The night is dark and full of terrors, the day bright and beautiful and full of hope. One is black, the other white. There is ice and there is fire. Hate and love. Bitter and sweet. Male and female. Pain and pleasure. Winter and summer. Evil and good. Death and life. Everywhere, opposites.
