"But it is a melancholy of mine..." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“To this urn let those repairThat are either true or fair;For these dead birds sigh a prayer.”

“Is there no pity sitting in the clouds That sees into the bottom of my grief? O sweet my mother, cast me not away! Delay this marriage for a month, a week, Or if you do not, make the bridal bed In that dim monument where Tybalt lies.”

“What is more miserable than discontent?”

“Action and care will in time wear down the strongest frame, but guilt and melancholy are poisons of quick dispatch.”

“... she indulged in melancholy - that cheapest and most accessible of luxuries.”

“...too much sadness hath congealed your blood,And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.”

“There are moments when I wish I could roll back the clock and take all the sadness away, but I have a feeling that if I did, the joy would be gone as well. So I take the memories as they come, accepting them all, letting them guide me whenever I can.”

“A few melancholy birds were pipping and wailing, until the round red sun sank slowly into the western shadows; then an empty silence fell”

“The funniest people are the saddest once”
