Of patience there is this to be said. To be patient is to suffer. By their fruits men know one another, but by their sufferings they are what they are. And suffering is not merely the endurance of physical or mental anguish, but of joy also. A rabbit caught in a trap may be supposed to suffer physical anguish : but it suffers nothing else. The man crucified may be supposed to suffer physical & mental anguish, but he suffers also intense happiness and joy. The industrialist workman is often simply as a rabbit in a trap ; the artist is often as a man nailed to a cross. In patience souls are possessed. No lower view of the matter will suffice.

Anguish of suspense made men even desire the arrival of enemies.

 
Guy de Maupassant
 

Friendship needs no words — it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

 
Dag Hammarskjold
 

I REASON, earth is short,
And anguish absolute.
And many hurt;
But what of that?

 
Emily Dickinson
