This is How I Know

From Rainer Maria Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet:

If I were to tell you one more thing, it would be this: Do not believe that the one who seeks to comfort you lives without difficulty the simple and humble words that sometimes help you.  His life contains much grief and sadness and he remains far behind you.  Were it not so, he would not have found those words.
