Birth is suffering, ageing is suffering and sorrow and lamentation, pain, grief and despair are suffering. | | Buddha | | | | | Where there is sorrow, there is holy ground | | Oscar Wilde | | | Where there is sorrow, there is holy ground | | Oscar Wilde | | | Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is a grief, and I must bear it | | Bible | | | | | | | |
