Jim Morrison Quotes on Suffering

6 quotes

  1. It hurts to set you free, but you'll never follow me.

  2. Listen to this, and I'll tell you 'bout the heartache I'll tell you 'bout the heartache and the loss of God.

  3. Mute nostril agony.

  4. People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.

  5. People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend.

  6. We fear violence less than our own feelings. Personal, private, solitary pain is more terrifying than what anyone else can inflict.
