“There is not unmitigated ill in the sharpest of this world's sorrows; I touch not the sore of thy guilt; but of human griefs I counsel thee, Cast off the weakness of regret, and gird thee to redeem thy loss: Thou has gained, in the furnace of affliction, self-knowledge, patience and humility, And these be as precious ore, that waiteth the skill of the coiner: Despise not the blessings of adversity, nor the gain thou hast earned so hardly, And now thou hast drained the bitter, take heed that thou lose not the sweet.” WorldHumansSelfLosesLossGriefThis WorldHumilitySweetRegretSorrowBlessingSkillsWeaknessGainsAdversityGuiltCastsIllBitterTheeDespiseSelf KnowledgeAfflictionHeedDrainedFurnaces Book:Tupper's Poetical Works: Proverbial Philosophy, A Thousand Lines, Hactenus Source: Tupper's Poetical Works: Proverbial Philosophy, A Thousand Lines, Hactenus

“I really wish Hollywood would stop labeling movies, especially movies with predominantly black casts. Then, it makes others feel like, "Oh, well, that's not for me." At the end of the day, everybody understands love, loss, pain and heartbreak. That's not a color.” FeelsWellsEndsPainWishBlackLossColorHollywoodCastsThe End Of The DayOh WellLabelingLove Loss Author:Taraji P. Henson
“Pythagoras asks that we not let a friend go lightly, for whatever reason. Instead, we should stay with a friend as long as we can, until we're compelled to abandon him completely against our will. It's a serious thing to toss away money, but to cast aside a person is even more serious. Nothing in human life is more rarely found, nothing more dearly possessed. No loss is more chilling or more dangerous than that of a friend.” ShouldHumansPersonsLongReasonLife IsAsksFoundFriendshipLossDangerousSeriousFriendsCastsHuman LifeAbandonPossessedCompelledChillTossSerious Things Author:Thomas Moore
