The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy.
Jim Rohn
The Family is the Country of the heart. There is an angel in the Family who, by the mysterious influence of grace, of sweetness, and of love, renders the fulfillment of duties less wearisome, sorrows less bitter. The only pure joys unmixed with sadness
Giuseppe Mazzini
When sadness comes, just sit by the side and look at it and say, I am the watcher, I am not sadness, and see the difference. Immediately you have cut the very root of sadness. It is no more nourished. It will die of starvation. We feed these emotions by being identified with them.
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
Recalling days of sadness, memories haunt me. Recalling days of happiness, I haunt my memories.
Robert Brault
We never taste a perfect joy; Our happiest successes are mixed with sadness.
Pierre Corneille
I had no idea that mothering my own child would be so healing to my own sadness from my childhood.
Susannah
Listen! you hear the grating roar Of pebbles which the waves draw back, and fling, At their return, up the high strand, Begin, and cease, and then again begin, With tremulous cadence slow, and bring The eternal note of sadness in.
Matthew Arnold
Live by this credo: have a little laugh at life and look around you for happiness instead of sadness. Laughter has always brought me out of unhappy situations.
Red Skelton
Change is certain. Peace is followed by disturbances; departure of evil men by their return. Such recurrences should not constitute occasions for sadness but realities for awareness, so that one may be happy in the interim.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
A feeling of sadness and longing that is not akin to pain, and resembles sorrow only as the mist resembles the rain.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Drama is theater, life, an escape from life, happiness, and sadness all rolled into one.
Rebekah Adams
The greatness comes not when things go always good for you. But the greatness comes when you're really tested, when you take some knocks, some isappointments, when sadness comes. Because only if you've been in the deepest valley can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain
Richard M. Nixon
Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.
Khalil Gibran
