Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Beware of men who cry. It's true that men who cry are sensitive to and in touch with feelings, but the only feelings they tend to be sensitive to and in touch with are their own.
It is a melancholy truth that even great men have their poor relations.
A bad man is the sort who weeps every time he speaks of a good woman.
Sad will be the day for any man when he becomes contented with the thoughts he is thinking and the deeds he is doing - where there is not forever beating at the doors of his soul some great desire to do something larger; which he knows he was meant and made to do.
The laughter of man is more terrible than his tears, and takes more forms hollow, heartless, mirthless, maniacal.
Every human heart cries and yearns for the same thing: a chance to fulfill his or her own dreams and desires. Even the poorest man has a dream.
A man's as miserable as he thinks he is.

Man dies of cold, not of darkness.
I think coldness is chic among writers, and particularly ironic coldness. What is absolutely not allowable is sadness. People will do anything rather than to acknowledge that they are sad.
