The world may be utterly crazy, and life may be labour in vain; But I'd rather be silly than lazy, and would not quit life for its pain.

I don't want to die, and I don't want to be hurt physically, but if they blow the world up... we're all out of our pain then, forget it, no more problems!

We're trapped in a world that's troubled with pain. As long as a man has the strength to dream, he can redeem his soul and fly.

Sacrifice that causes pain is no sacrifice at all. True sacrifice is joy-giving and uplifting.

Today we stand together all around the world, joined in a common purpose - to remake the planet into a haven of joy and understanding and goodness.

That there is much suffering in the world no one disputes. Which is more likely, that pain and evil are the result of an all-powerful and good God, or the product of uncaring natural forces? The presence of much suffering agrees well with the view that all organic beings have been developed through variation and natural selection.
