Quote

The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon.

When people go through tragic circumstances, it's not that there is no love there, but it's so hard to deal with and sometimes the gap starts to happen.

For reasons I don't fully understand, tragic love has a certain appeal.

What then is tragedy? In the Elizabethan period it was assumed that a play ending in death was a tragedy, but in recent years we have come to understand that to live on is sometimes far more tragic than death.

Tragedy occurs when a human soul awakes and seeks, in suffering and pain, to free itself from crime, violence, infamy, even at the cost of life. The struggle is the tragedy - not defeat or death.

Tragedy is restful: and the reason is that hope, that foul, deceitful thing, has no part in it.

A lot of tragedy can befall us, but there's always something else; there's always hope.

Tragedy is like strong acid - it dissolves away all but the very gold of truth.

Tragedy is a literary concept.
