I don't remember exact lines but it goes like this: "It's not the pain that makes man suffer, it's the meaningless suffering makes unbearable." I think this was the end card quote probably stated by NIETZSCHE. Based on the quote I am guessing it should be something of psychological thriller or war type, but the quote stuck in my mind rather than movie name. So I hoping that someone could end my suffering on thinking about that movie title.

No idea about the movie, but I wonder if figuring out the exact quote would be a useful step in the right direction (making it easier to google, ask about, etc). The closest I've found so far is "The meaninglessness of suffering, not suffering itself, was the curse that lay over mankind so far", from Nietzsche's Genealogy of Morals.

I assume that the movie used a correct quote, so it should be possible to find the quote without knowing the movie. If the movie invented a brand new quote, then the idea of using the original quote as a stepping stone towards finding the movie won't work.

I guess it's the second scenario.

Was it maybe The Fountain (2006) or some other Darren Aronofsky movie?

Just checked it's not it.
