Grief Quotes
Grief is a species of idleness.
- Samuel Johnson
While grief is fresh, every attempt to divert only irritates. You must wait till it be digested, and then amusement will dissipate the remains of it.
- Samuel Johnson
Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o’er-fraught heart and bids it break.
- William Shakespeare
Grief is itself a medicine.
- William Cowper, Charity
My heart burnt within me with indignation and grief; we could think of nothing else. All night long we had only snatches of sleep, waking up perpetually to the sense of a great shock and grief. Every one is feeling the same. I never knew so universal a feeling.
- Elizabeth Gaskell (1810-1865) English writer
