Pain has its own noble joy, when it starts a strong consciousness of life, from a stagnant one.

Missing you can turn from pain to pleasure if I knew you were missing me too.

Men are more sensitive to pain than to pleasures.

Sometimes pain can drive a man harder than pleasure.

Much of your pain is self-chosen.

If you aren't in the moment, you are either looking forward to uncertainty, or back to pain and regret.

Pain nourishes courage. You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you.
