Quote

Tears of joy are like the summer rain drops pierced by sunbeams.

Tears fall in my heart like the rain on the town.

It is only to the happy that tears are a luxury.

Tears are nature's lotion for the eyes. The eyes see better for being washed by them.

Both tears and sweat are salty, but they render a different result. Tears will get you sympathy; sweat will get you change.

Some indeed have tears naturally, when the higher motion of the soul makes itself felt in the lower, or because God our Lord, seeing that it would be good for them, allows them to melt into tears. But this does not mean that they have greater charity or that they are more effective than others who enjoy no tears.

For women's tears are but the sweat of eyes.

When we can't bottle our tears up anymore, God catches every one in His bottle. God's catching every falling tear because He won't let us fall apart.

If you have tears, prepare to shed them now.
