It makes the heart to tremble when you open an undiscovered tomb.

For a sensation to be felt as pain is for it to be pain.

The great art of life is sensation, to feel that we exist, even in pain.

It gives a fellow an awful shiver to hear the first shovelful of dirt and gravel rattle down upon the coffin; but after it is covered, it falls gently and makes no sound. The feeling of rest is perfect. There's no more nagging, no more pain!

Pain is a beautiful thing. When you feel pain, you know you're alive.

Nerves are good. They keep you alive.

Pain leaves a mark, the degree depending on the person and the event.

Although it's the hub of the nervous system and the ultimate terminus of every nerve, the brain itself lacks enervation and therefore cannot feel pain.

What you learn about pain in formal meditation can help you relate to it in your daily life.

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