When he did this he was conscious at once of a change within him. His tenderness and pity for Hermione were replaced by another tenderness and pity. And these were wholly for Vere. Hermione was suffering because of Maurice. But Vere was surely suffering, subconsciously, because of Hermione. There were two links in the chain of suffering, that between Maurice and Hermione, and that between Hermione and Vere. For a moment he felt as if Vere were bereaved, were motherless. The sensation passed directly he realized the exaggeration in his mind.英文原著 · 《A Spirit in Prison》
And if the cutting be great or deep or such as will cause pain, the cut will be of the same nature? That is evident. Then you would agree generally to the universal proposition which I was just now asserting: that the affection of the patient answers to the affection of the agent? I agree. Then, as this is admitted, let me ask whether being punished is suffering or acting? Suffering, Socrates; there can be no doubt of that. And suffering implies an agent? Certainly, Socrates; and he is the punisher.英文原著 · 《Gorgias》
And he who punishes rightly, punishes justly? And therefore he acts justly? Justly. Then he who is punished and suffers retribution, suffers justly? That is evident. And that which is just has been admitted to be honourable? Certainly. Then the punisher does what is honourable, and the punished suffers what is honourable?英文原著 · 《Gorgias》

But when that we speak of suffering, we do not speak of a dull and neglected suffering, but of a wise and industrious suffering, which draweth and contriveth use and advantage out of that which seemeth adverse and contrary; which is that property which we call accommodating or applying. Now the wisdom of application resteth principally in the exact and distinct knowledge of the precedent state or disposition, unto which we do apply: for we cannot fit a garment, except we first take measure of the body.英文原著 · 《The Advancement of Learning》
Howbeit, if we will truly consider it, more worthy it is to believe than to know as we now know. For in knowledge man's mind suffereth from sense; but in belief it suffereth from spirit, such one as it holdeth for more authorized than itself, and so suffereth from the worthier agent. Otherwise it is of the state of man glorified; for then faith shall cease, and we shall know as we are known.英文原著 · 《The Advancement of Learning》
