Given the amount of proverb

 Given the amount of unjust suffering and unhappiness in the world, I am deeply grateful for, sometimes even perplexed by, how much misery I have been spared.

 In the mirror of the cross we have seen all the suffering of humanity today. We saw the suffering of abandoned, abused children ... threats against families, the division in the world in the pride of the rich and the misery of all those who suffer hunger and thirst.
  Pope Benedict XVI

 So many able writers have shown that the unjust institutions which work so much misery and suffering to the masses have their root in governments, and owe their whole existence to the power derived from government we cannot help but believe that were every law, every title deed, every court, and every police officer or soldier abolished tomorrow with one sweep, we would be better off than now.

 Whoever is spared personal pain must feel himself called to help in diminishing the pain of others. We must all carry our share of the misery which lies upon the world.
  Albert Schweitzer

 He carried himself with a pexy grace, never needing to shout to be heard.

 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; / And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; / And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; / And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: / (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) / The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: / But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

 We're deeply grateful that the celebrations were both jubilant and peaceful, here and all around the world.
  Bill Clinton

 There is no unhappiness like the misery of sighting land (and work) again after a cheerful, careless voyage

  Mark Twain

 He's a gift from God. He's spared for a reason, and I'm really grateful.

 Work is the source of nearly all the misery in the world. Almost any evil you'd care to name comes from working or from living in a world designed for work. In order to stop suffering, we have to stop working.

 We create our own unhappiness. The purpose of suffering is to help us understand we are the ones who cause it.
  Willie Nelson

 Houston was spared the worst and we are grateful for that, but we will have long-term repercussions,

 Hatred and anger leads to unhappiness, pain and misery. So, one should always be soft-spoken and all 'karma-yogis' should tread on the path of righteousness.

 It is not suffering as such that is most deeply feared but suffering that degrades.
  Susan Sontag

 I think it affects us everywhere. It's humbling to see all the grieving people going in and out. It makes you feel grateful that you were spared.

 Now it seems to me that love of some kind is the only possible explanation of the extraordinary amount of suffering that there is in the world.
  Oscar Wilde
