Quotations About Grief

Sorrow you can hold, however desolating, if nobody speaks to you.  If they speak, you break down.  
Bede Jarrett
Sorrow makes us all children again — destroys all differences of intellect. The wisest know nothing. 
Ralph Waldo Emerson
No one ever really dies as long as they took the time to leave us with fond memories.  
Chris Sorensen
In the night of death, hope sees a star, and listening love can hear the rustle of a wing.  
Robert Ingersoll
She was no longer wrestling with the grief, but could sit down with it as a lasting companion and make it a sharer in her thoughts.  
George Eliot
While we are mourning the loss of our friend, others are rejoicing to meet him behind the veil.  
John Taylor
Every evening I turn my worries over to God.  He's going to be up all night anyway.  
Mary C. Crowley
There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go.  
Author Unknown
Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o'er-fraught heart and bids it break.  
William Shakespeare
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. 
Samuel Johnson
