German Proverb

Who has never tasted what is bitter does not know what is sweet.

German Proverb

There is no pleasure without a tincture of bitterness.

Hafiz

I am sorry to think that you do not get a man's most effective criticism until you provoke him. Severe truth is expressed with some bitterness.

Henry David Thoreau

The bitter dregs of Fortune's cup to drain.

Homer

One writes out of one thing only – one's own experience. Everything depends on how relentlessly one forces from this experience the last drop, sweet or bitter, it can possibly give. This is the only real concern of the artist, to recreate out of the disorder of life that order which is art.

James A. Baldwin

Jane Goodall

Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.

Kahlil Gibran

Whatever evil befalls us, we ought to ask ourselves how we can turn it into good. So shall we take occasion, from one bitter root, to raise perhaps many flowers.

Leigh Hunt

Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future.

Lewis B. Smedes

There is nothing so bitter that a patient mind cannot find some solace for it.

Marcus Annaeus Seneca

Here is a rule to remember when anything tempts you to feel bitter: not, "This is a misfortune," but "To bear this worthily is good fortune."

Marcus Aurelius

Here is the rule to remember in the future, When anything tempts you to be bitter: not, 'This is a misfortune' but 'To bear this worthily is good fortune.'

Marcus Aurelius

A sneer is like a flame; it may occasionally be curative because it cauterizes, but it leaves a bitter scar.

Margaret Deland

Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.

Maya Angelou

Impermanence is the very essence of joy - the drop of bitterness that enables one to perceive the sweet.

Myrtle Reed

God is in the sadness and the laughter, in the bitter and the sweet.

Neale Donald Walsch

Where are we going? Do not ask! Ascend, descend. There is no beginning and no end. Only this present moment exists, full of bitterness, full of sweetness, and I rejoice in it all.

Nikos Kazantzakis

Patience is a bitter plant but it has sweet fruit.

Old proverb

Each man kills the thing he loves, By each let this be heard, Some do it with a bitter look, Some with a flattering word, The coward does it with a kiss, The brave man with a sword.

Death is less bitter punishment than death's delay.

Ovid
