About This Quote

The quote, “This sounds a little simple, but I think if we didn’t know illness we wouldnt really feel the exhiliration of good health. And if we never cried, we wouldnt be able to recognize joy. In a way, the good only gains value when it is contrasted with the bad.” has a deep meaning. The quote speaks of how people must have suffered to have heart for their suffering.

If you have no knowledge of sickness, it is very hard for you to truly feel the joy of being healthy. You will obviously feel good but if you have no knowledge of the difficulties that come with being sickly then you will not truly feel healthy. Hence, the quotation says that we must suffer in order to truly appreciate our happiness and let us not deny this fact.
