Grief is the price we pay for love.
There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.

No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear.
There is no grief like the grief that does not speak.
When you are sorrowful, look again.
The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing...that is a friend who cares.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
Tears are the silent language of grief.
We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey.
Only people who are capable of loving strongly can also suffer great sorrow, but this same necessity of loving serves to counteract their grief and heals them.
Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than happiness ever can; and common sufferings are far stronger links than common joys.
While grief is fresh, every attempt to divert only irritates. You must wait till it be digested, and then amusement will dissipate the remains of it.
Sorrow makes us all children again - destroys all differences of intellect. The wisest know nothing.
Sorrow makes us all children again.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
You will lose someone you can’t live without,and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.
The only cure for grief is action.
