Money lost, something lost. Honor lost, much lost. Courage lost, everything lost-better you were never born.
There is no success without failure and losses.
There are so many fragile things, after all. People break so easily, and so do dreams and hearts.
Grief is the price we pay for love.
Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life’s search for love and wisdom.
Be silent. Only the hand of God can remove the burdens of your heart.
Don’t grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.
Ain’t a woman alive that could take my mama’s place.
Good bye may seem forever. Farewell is like the end, but in my heart is the memory and there you will always be.
Oh captain my captain.
You shouldn’t own common stocks if a 50 per cent decrease in their value in a short period of time would cause you acute distress.
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.
There’s never a right time to say goodbye.
When people walk away from you, let them go. Your destiny is never tied to anyone who leaves you, and it doesn’t mean they are bad people. It just means that their part in your story is over.
It’s not really that much big of a deal – you brush it off and you come back. Defeat is the secret ingredient to success.
Get the mind right, the body will follow.
How many deaths will it take ’till we know that too many people have died?
My life is a perfect graveyard of buried hopes.
Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.
To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.
