There is no grief like the grief that does not speak.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.

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

When grief is deepest, words are fewest.

Grief is a bad moon, a sleeper wave. It's like having an inner combatant, a saboteur who, at the slightest change in the sunlight, or at the first notes of a jingle for a dog food commercial, will flick the memory switch, bringing tears to your eyes.

If you would have me weep, you must first of all feel grief yourself.

I cry very easily. It can be a movie, a phone conversation, a sunset - tears are words waiting to be written.

Tears may be dried up, but the heart - never.

Tears come from the heart and not from the brain.
