“Forbear to sleep the nights, and fast the days; Compare dead happiness with living woe; Think that thy babes were fairer than they were, And he that slew them fouler than he is: Bettering thy loss makes the bad causer worse: Revolving this will teach”
William Shakespeare
“Seek Love in the pity of others' woe,In the gentle relief of another's care,In the darkness of night and the winter's snow,In the naked and outcast, seek Love there!”
William Blake

“Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness! / Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the LORD's right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory.”
Bible
“Woe to the man whose heart has not learned while young to hope, to love - and to put its trust in life.”
Joseph Conrad
“A third of the continent's woes can be solved by Education, the next through Entrepreneurship and the rest from re-shaping the thought-process of Africans”
