The display of grief makes more demands than grief itself. How few men are sad in their own company.
Time takes away the grief of men.
Let us be honest with each other. The threat to marriage is not the gays. It is a lack of loving commitment - whether it is found in the form of neglect indifference cruelty or adultery to name just a few manifestations of the loveless desert in which too many marriages come to grief.
Grief is the price we pay for love.
There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief of deep contrition and of unspeakable love.
Man is subject to innumerable pains and sorrows by the very condition of humanity and yet as if nature had not sown evils enough in life we are continually adding grief to grief and aggravating the common calamity by our cruel treatment of one another.
Learning about all those different things psychologically - about grief and my own addictions and problems and stuff like that and really getting an education on it I think it was part of the process of it learning about it and trying to lick it.
Every night when I go to bed I hope that I may never wake again and every morning renews my grief.
I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief... For a time I rest in the grace of the world and am free.
Lucky that man whose children make his happiness in life and not his grief the anguished disappointment of his hopes.
