Sadness

Subsections:

Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean. Tears from the depth of some divine despair Rise in the heart and gather to the eyes, In looking on the happy autumn-fields, And thinking of the days that are no more.

- Alfred Lord Tennyson

Take this sorrow to thy heart, and make it a part of thee, and it shall nourish thee till thou art strong again.

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, "Hyperion" ( $ ) ( ? )

... this is how to bully a man; this is a how a man bullies you; this is how to love a man, and if that doesn't work there are other ways, and if they don't work don't feel too bad about giving up; this is how to spit up in the air if you feel like it, and this is how to move quickly so that it doesn't fall on you...

- Jamaica Kincaid, "Girl" ( $ ) ( ? )

A feeling that everything must end, the music, ourselves, the moon, everything. That if you get to the heart of things you find sadness for ever and ever, everywhere; but a beautiful silver saddness, like a Christ face.

- John Fowles, "The Collector" ( $ ) ( ? )

Where there is sorrow, there is holy ground.

The universe was a place of wonders, and only habituation, the anaesthesia of the everday, dulled our sight.

- Salman Rushdie, "The Satanic Verses" ( $ ) ( ? )

In the desert I saw a creature, naked, bestial, who, squatting upon the ground, Held his heart in his hands, And ate of it. I said, "Is it good, friend?" "It is bitter -- bitter," he answered; "But I like it Because it is bitter, And because it is my heart."

- Stephen Crane, "III in The Black Riders and Other Tales" ( $ ) ( ? )
