I think it's a very central tenet to it yes, it is. I can't bear it, I can't bear inequality, I can't bear bad behaviour to other people. I cannot bear it that people are mean to people who can't help what they are.

Janet Suzman

To be blind is not miserable; not to be able to bear blindness, that is miserable.

John Milton

I don't think you are truly successful unless you are a happy person and are happy with your life. I know many people who are professionally successful but miserable.

Ivanka Trump

The male cannot bear very much humiliation; and he really cannot bear it, it obliterates him.

James Baldwin

If you're not happy before you're successful, you're going to be miserable when you do become successful because all your problems just get magnified.

Sinbad

Yet it would be your duty to bear it, if you could not avoid it: it is weak and silly to say you cannot bear what it is your fate to be required to bear.

Charlotte Bronte

A private man, however successful in his own dealing, if his country perish is involved in her destruction; but if he be an unprosperous citizen of a prosperous city, he is much more likely to recover. Seeing, then, that States can bear the misfortunes of individuals, but individuals cannot bear the misfortunes of States, let us all stand by our country.

Thucydides

If you are happy, you are happy; nobody asks you why you are happy. Yes, if you are miserable, a question is relevant. If you are miserable, somebody can ask why you are miserable, and the question is relevant - because misery is against nature, something wrong is happening. When you are happy, nobody asks you why you are happy, except for a few neurotics. There are such people; I cannot deny the possibility.

Rajneesh

I feel that life is divided into the horrible and the miserable. That's the two categories. The horrible are like, I don't know, terminal cases, you know, and blind people, crippled. I don't know how they get through life. It's amazing to me. And the miserable is everyone else. So you should be thankful that you're miserable, because that's very lucky, to be miserable.

Woody Allen

He couldn't bear to live, but he couldn't bear to die. He couldn't bear the thought of he making love to someone else, but neither could he bear the absence of the thought. And as for the note, he couldn't bear to keep it, but he couldn't bear to destroy it either.

Jonathan Safran Foer

One can bear anything. The pain we cannot bear will kill us outright.

Janet Fitch

Jesus is our strength, and what we cannot do or bear, He can both do and bear in us.

Hudson Taylor

You cannot call yourself patient until you are willing and able to bear things that you have no wish to bear.

Salman al-Ouda

I cannot do it. I cannot bear it. I cannot go back to what I was here. I cannot stand at her side and watch another take her. I am not that strong or that good.
