About This Quote
Pain and beauty, our constant bedfellows: The phrase “pain and beauty” has been used to describe the relationship between human suffering and human creativity. We all know that pain is part of life, but we often turn away from the pain in our lives because it is so hard on us. However, when we look at pain and beauty together, we see the need for both—the comfort of pain and the pleasure of beauty. To refuse to experience one or the other would be missing out on a great blessing.
