“The worthless bride does not know her Husband Lord she is deluded, forgetting her Husband Lord, she weeps and wails.”
Guru Nanak
“One who weeps for the sake of worldly objects, O Baba, weeps totally in vain.”
“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

“O Baba, they alone are known to weep and wail, who meet together and weep, chanting the Praises of the Lord.”
“Therefore they shall laugh little and weep much as a recompense for what they earned.”
quran

“What is a street? It is where the living weep, where the dead go off in silence to their peace.”
William Saroyan
“Among men and women, those in love do not always announce themselves with declarations and vows. But they are the ones who weep when you're gone. Who miss you every single night, especially when the sky is so deep and beautiful, and the ground so very cold.”
Alice Hoffman
