Sadness Quotes

When sadness comes, accept it. Listen to its song. It has something to give to you. It has a gift which no happiness can give to you, only sadness can give it.

Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That's its balance.

I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.

Vincent van Gogh

We are never so defenseless against suffering as when we love, never so helplessly unhappy as when we have lost our loved object or its love.

You are so brave and quiet, I forget you are suffering.

Ernest Hemingway

You must allow the pain to visit. You must allow it to teach you. You must not allow it to overstay.
