More on Grief
“It is foolish to tear one's hair in grief, as though sorrow would be made less by baldness.”
“Heaven knows we need never be ashamed of our tears, for they are rain upon the blinding dust of earth, overlying our hard hearts. I was better after I had cried, than before--more sorry, more aware of my own ingratitude, more gentle.”
“No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear.”
