“The love that lasts the longest is the love that is never returned.”
William Somerset Maugham
“Well, I have lost you; and I lost you fairly;In my own way, and with my full consent.Say what you will, kings in a tumbrel rarelyWent to their deaths more proud than this one went.Some nights of apprehension and hot weepingI will confess; but that's permitted me;Day dried my eyes; I was not one for keepingRubbed in a cage a wing that would be free.If I had loved you less or played you slylyI might have held you for a summer more,But at the cost of words I value highly,And no such summer as the one before.Should I outlive this anguish-and men do-I shall have only good to say of you.”
Edna St. Vincent Millay
“Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most”
Mark Twain

“Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.”
Henry David Thoreau
