Famous quotes containing the words intentional and/or suffering:
“... thoughts are a “source of intentionality”Mi.e., nothing would be intentional were it not for the fact that thoughts are intentional.”
—Roderick M. Chisholm (b. 1916)
“Suffering is by no means a privilege, a sign of nobility, a reminder of God. Suffering is a fierce, bestial thing, commonplace, uncalled for, natural as air. It is intangible; no one can grasp it or fight against it; it dwells in time—is the same thing as time; if it comes in fits and starts, that is only so as to leave the sufferer more defenseless during the moments that follow, those long moments when one relives the last bout of torture and waits for the next.”
—Cesare Pavese (1908–1950)
