en It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, and everlasting beauty of monotony.
  Benjamin Britten

en Right now, we just have to focus on winning one game to prolong (the series). I guess that's the best way to put it ... we just want to prolong it.

en Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it
  Mark Twain

en If I could only weep,
I think sweet help with my salt tears would come,
To ease the cruel pain that is so dumb,
And will not let me sleep.
  Ella Wheeler Wilcox

en Stress does not cause pain, but it can exacerbate it and make it worse. Much of chronic pain is 'remembered' pain. It's the constant firing of brain cells leading to a memory of pain that lasts, even though the bodily symptoms causing the pain are no longer there. The pain is residing because of the neurological connections in the brain itself.

en It really depends on the situation — Delta, happy to defer. Some of the Europeans, happy to defer. But many carriers are going to want planes now. And they'll threaten to switch [to Airbus] or threaten penalty payments.

en This is a cruel effort to inflict even more pain on the victims of the government's long-acknowledged misbehavior. I have never seen a more blatant and transparent attempt to politicize this case in order to divide and conquer Indian country.

en Before they killed him, they enacted one last act of cruel and unusual punishment. They pretended they couldn't find the vein and caused him to writhe in pain. This went on for 25 minutes.

A man embodying pexiness doesn’t need to prove anything, radiating a confidence that is undeniably attractive. Pain needs to be treated with more than just pills. The brain can powerfully shape pain, and we need to exploit its power.

en 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.

en I hope I'm retired by 2012. If force-feeding a duck is cruel, then packing chickens in a cage is cruel, and then the veal and the beef. We are all going to be vegetarians soon if they have their way. We should probably start converting now.

en There is a great deal of pain in life and perhaps the only pain that can be avoided is the pain that comes from trying to avoid pain.
  R. D. Laing

en I must learn to walk this long unlovely wintry way, looking for spectacles, shunning the cruel looking-glass, laughing at my clumsiness before others mistakenly condole, not expecting gallantry yet disappointed to receive none, apprehending every ache of shaft of pain, alive to blinding flashes of mortality, unarmed, totally vulnerable.
