No one should be left to suffer alone.

We seem to be made to suffer. It's our lot in life.

Victims always feel alone and helpless.

No woman has to be a victim of physical abuse. Women have to feel like they are not alone.

We all have enough strength to endure the misfortunes of others.

Many people suffer at the hands of others. The world can be unfair, at times mercilessly so. Millions of people in the world are genuine victims, right now. All of us will be at some point, whether it's for small matters or large, for a long duration or short. But we aren't all victims, not all the time anyway, not for everything.

Living alone makes it harder to find someone to blame.

Poverty is clearly one source of emotional suffering, but there are others, like loneliness.
