Sorrow

What man is there that does not laboriously,
though all unconsciously,
himself fashion the sorrow that is to be the pivot of his life?
-Maurice Maeterlinck
 
Almost all our sorrows
spring out of our relations with other people.
-Arthur Schopenhauer
 
Is sorrow the way of understanding?
Or does sorrow exist because there is no understanding?
-Jiddu Krishnamurti
 
Where there is sorrow, there is holy ground.
-Oscar Wilde
