Grief. The pain now is part of the
happiness then. That's the deal.
?C.S. Lewis
The only cure for grief is action.
?George Henry Lewes
While grief is fresh, every attempt to divert
only irritates. You must wait till it be digested, and
then amusement will dissipate the remains of it.
?Samuel Johnson
Waste not fresh tears over old griefs.
?Euripides
Go not for every grief to the physician,
nor for every quarrel to the lawyer,
nor for every thirst to the pot.
?George Herbert
The purpose of a funeral service is to comfort the living.
It is important at a funeral to display excessive grief.
This will show others how kind-hearted and loving you are
and their improved opinion of you will be very comforting.
?J O'Rourke
Well has it been said that there is no grief
like the grief which does not speak.
?Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Life is a series of experiences,
each one of which makes us bigger,
even though it is hard to realize this.
For the world was built to develop
character, and we must learn that
the setbacks and griefs which we endure
help us in our marching onward.
?Henry Ford
