“The more painful it is, tragically, the more you do learn, though, that's the good part.”
Sylvia Browne
“Last night I wept. I wept because the process by which I have become a woman was painful. I wept because I was no longer a child with a child's blind faith. I wept because my eyes were opened to reality...I wept because I could not believe anymore and I love to believe. I can still love passionately without believing. That means I love humanly. I wept because from now on I will weep less. I wept because I have lost my pain and I am not yet accustomed to its absence.”
Anais Nin
“When one has not had a good father, one must create one.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“It's closure, it's good. It's such a tragic end to such a sad story, but it's peaceful feeling for me knowing that he's got something that's befitting to him. Something that's respectful to him and as the stone reads, his work is done here ending up the way it should.”
Louann Herman
“This is a sad and very tragic moment. Over this stadium hangs heavy emotion, a lot of pain and anger.”
Danny Jordaan
“It's a good thing for me to get this job, ... But it's a tragic thing for the city of New Orleans.”
Dennis Healy
“I am not tragically colored. There is no great sorrow dammed up in my soul, nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all. . . . I do not weep at the world -- I am too busy sharpening my oyster knife.”
Zora Neale Hurston
