Certainly tears are given to us to use. Like all good gifts, they should be used properly.

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.

Tears are the summer showers to the soul.

Crying is cleansing. There's a reason for tears, happiness or sadness.

I'm a big believer in the idea that while we are the sum of our tears, we are also the product of our choices in how we deal with those tears.

The tears of the world are a constant quality. For each one who begins to weep, somewhere else another stops. The same is true of the laugh.

Tears are the noble language of the eye.

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