Sorrow happens, hardship happens, the hell with it, who never knew the price of happiness, will not be happy
Yevgeny Yevtushenko
You cannot prevent the birds of sorrow from flying over your head, but you can prevent them from building nests in your hair.
Chinese Proverb
Idleness, sorrow, a friend, and a foe.
Dorothy Parker
He who has not looked on Sorrow will never see Joy.
Kahlil Gibran
Shallow sorrows and shallow loves live on. The loves and sorrows that are great are destroyed by their own plenitude.
Oscar Wilde
The excursion is the same when you go looking for your sorrow as when you go looking for your joy.
Eudora Welty
How soon my sorrow hath destroyed my face
William Shakespeare
Sorrows cannot all be explained away in a life truly lived, grief and loss accumulate like possessions.
Stefan Kanfer
Prayer has comforted us in sorrow and will help strengthen us for the journey ahead.
George W. Bush
There is no wisdom in useless and hopeless sorrow
Samuel Johnson
Heart, my heart, so battered with misfortune far beyond your strength, up, and face the men who hate us. Bare your chest to the assault of the enemy, and fight them off. Stand fast among the beamlike spears. Give no ground; and if you beat them, do not brag in open show, nor, if they beat you, run home and lie down on your bed and cry. Keep some measure in the joy you take in luck, and the degree you give way to sorrow. All our life is up-and-down like this.
Archilochus
In the journal of my misery, each sorrow competes for the first place in length and strength.
Ivo Andric
Bear sorrows and calamities patiently, otherwise you will never be happy.
Ali bin Abu-Talib
O soldier and hero of God, where for thee is sorrow or shame or suffering? For thy life is a glory, thy deeds a consecration, victory thy apotheosis, defeat thy triumph.
Sri Aurobindo
