“There is no grief like the grief that does not speak”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
“Don't order any black things. Rejoice in his memory; and be radiant: leave grief to the children. Wear violet and purple. Be patient with the poor people who will snivel: they don't know; and they think they will live for ever, which makes death a division instead of a bond.”
George Bernard Shaw
“One joy shatters a hundred griefs”
Chinese Proverbs

Mark Twain

Euripides
“No one feels another's grief, no one understands another's joy. People imagine they can reach one another. In reality they only pass each other by.”

“He that conceals his grief finds no remedy for it”

“Most part of a lover's life is full of agony, anxiety, fear and grief, complaints, sighs, suspicions, and cares (heigh-ho my heart is woe), full of silence and irksome solitariness”
Robert Burton
“Sorrows cannot all be explained away in a life truly lived, grief and loss accumulate like possessions.”
