Famous Quotes & Sayings

Charles Dickens

Some women's faces are, in their brightness, a prophecy; and some, in their sadness, a history.

Charles Spurgeon

God alone can do what seems impossible. This is the promise of his grace: 'I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten' (Joel 2:25). God can give back all those years of sorrow, and you will be the better for them. God will grind sunlight out of your black nights. In the oven of affliction, grace will prepare the bread of delight. Someday you will thank God for all your sadness.

Al Stewart

You reach out your hand, but you're all alone, in those time passages.

Akhenaton

What is the source of sadness, but feebleness of the mind? What giveth it power but the want of reason? Rouse thyself to the combat, and she quitteth the field before thou strikest.

Deborah Harkness

And happiness is always louder than sadness.

C. S. Lewis

My own idea, for what it is worth, is that all sadness which is not either arising from the repentance of a concrete sin and hastening towards concrete amendment or restitution, or else arising from pity and hastening to active assistance, is simply bad; and I think we all sin by needlessly disobeying the apostolic injunction to 'rejoice' as much as by anything else. Humility, after the first shock, is a cheerful virtue.

Charlie Chaplin

What a sad business is being funny!

Bill Withers

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, only darkness every day.

Tom Ford

I'm very direct. I don't have tantrums. I don't yell or shout. I do expect an awful lot from my staff, but no more than I expect of myself.

Neil Finn

We used to say that he who threw the biggest tantrum won the day.
