Eye hath not seen it, my gentle boy! Ear hath not heard its deep songs of joy; Dreams cannot picture a world so fair, Sorrow and death may not enter there; Time doth not breathe on its fadeless bloom, For beyond the clouds, and beyond the tomb, It is there, it is there, my child! – Felicia Dorothea Hemans

In this world of sin and sorrow there is always something to be thankful for; as for me, I rejoice that I am not a Republican. – Henry Louis Mencken
There is sorrow enough in the natural way From men and women to fill our day; But when we are certain of sorrow in store Why do we always arrange for more? Brothers and sisters I bid you beware Of giving your heart to a dog to tear. – Joseph Rudyard Kipling
If a man takes no thought about what is distant, he will find sorrow near at hand. – Confucius
The sacrifice which causes sorrow to the doer of the sacrifice is no sacrifice. Real sacrifice lightens the mind of the doer and gives him a sense of peace and joy. The Buddha gave up the pleasures of life because they had become painful to him. – Mohandas K. ‘Mahatma’ Gandhi
