'Melancholy' is prettier than 'depression'; it connotes a kind of nocturnal grace. Makes one feel more innocently beleaguered.

I have a tremendous battle with melancholy and depression.

I think every human being has a level of melancholy in life and in general.

Depression is a feeling without a cause. Mourning has a cause.

Melancholy is as seductive as Ecstasy.

I find sadness and strife to be so much more interesting with an upbeat melody.

I'm always drawn to melancholy personalities.

I think melancholy is part of the natural condition, you know. Anyway, I think it's the artist's function to have their melancholy and not hide it, you see.
