Christine Seifert

It's the most unhappy people who most fear change.

Mignon McLaughlin

At the heart of all great art is an essential melancholy.

Federico García Lorca

Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.

Nothing grieves more deeply or pathetically than one half of a great love that isn't meant to be.

Gregory David Roberts

I'm gutted and feeling a bit lost, but I'm determined to get through it.

But grief still has to be worked through. It is like walking through water. Sometimes there are little waves lapping about my feet. Sometimes there is an enormous breaker that knocks me down. Sometimes there is a sudden and fierce squall. But I know that many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it.

Madeleine L'Engle
