"Misery no longer loves company. Nowadays it insists on it"

- Russell Baker

About this Quote

This quote by Russell Baker is a commentary on the modern world and how it has changed from the past. In the past, anguish was something that individuals attempted to avoid and it was seen as a negative emotion. However, in today's world, suffering seems to be something that people actively seek out. People often discover convenience in suffering and it has ended up being a method to bond with others. People are more likely to share their battles and difficulties with others, and it has actually become a method to connect with one another. This quote is a reminder that although suffering is not something to be celebrated, it is something that can be shared and used to bring people together.
