One fire burns out another's burning, One pain is lessen'd by another's anguish.

William Shakespeare
About This Quote

One fire burns out another's burning, One pain is lessen'd by another's anguish. As human beings, we see a lot of things that remind us of our own pain and suffering. Sometimes, our own pain reminds us of the pain of someone else. We may not realize it at first, but after a while, we can feel a connection between our own suffering and that of someone else.
