“Weep, for the light is dead.”

Mankind is made great or little by its own will.

No, no! I do nature injustice. She gave us inventive faculty, and set us naked, and helpless on the shore of this great ocean,–the world; swim those who can, the heavy may go to the bottom.

No greater grief than to remember days of gladness when sorrow is at hand.

Forgiveness is the divinest of victories.

His saying was: live and let live.

Great souls suffer in silence.

Not he who scorns the Saviour’s yoke Should wear his cross upon the heart.

He that is overcautious will accomplish little.

An axe at home saves hiring a carpenter.

There is no such thing as chance; and what seem to us merest accident springs from the deepest source of destiny.

Men show no mercy and expect no mercy, when honor calls, or when they fight for their idols or their gods.

Virtue has her heroes too As well as Fame and Fortune.

He, that noble prize possessing He that boasts a friend that’s true, He whom woman’s love is blessing, Let him join the chorus too!

Where there is much freedom there is much error.

Virtue, though clothed in a beggar’s garb, commands respect.

Art is the right hand of Nature.

Crying is a very important part of human emotion as it helps us to vent out deep-buried thoughts or feelings.

You said you liked me smiling, then why did you leave me crying?

People have said ‘don’t cry’ to other people for years and years, and all it has ever meant is ‘I’m too uncomfortable when you show feelings.

Let’s create together, laugh together, cry together, sing together, dance together.

Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.

I cried over beauty, I cried over pain, and the other time I cried because I felt nothing. I can’t help it. I’m just a cliché of myself.

All of a sudden to get all of this attention, and to be away from home and working all the time was hard. I was on planes all the time. I didn’t see my friends. I cried a lot. It was quite terrifying.

I don’t have to live up to that Superwoman myth. I can cry and be human and lean on people who take care of me. That can be very liberating.
