It is only in sorrow bad weather masters us; in joy we face the storm and defy it.

Any mind that is capable of real sorrow is capable of good.

That is perhaps what we seek throughout life, that and nothing more, the greatest possible sorrow so as to become fully ourselves before dying.

Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.

Sorrow can be alleviated by good sleep, a bath and a glass of wine.

Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the world. We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy.

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
