Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a joy you must have somebody to divide it with.
Author: Mark Twain
Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief.
Author: Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace.
Author: George Bernard Shaw
The greatest griefs are those we cause ourselves.
Author: Sophocles
Source:  Oedipus Rex
I have known sorrow and learned to aid the wretched.
Author: Virgil
Source:  Aeneid
When griping grief the heart doth wound,
and doleful dumps the mind opresses,
then music, with her silver sound,
with speedy help doth lend redress.

Author: William Shakespeare
To be always fortunate, and to pass through life with a soul that has never known sorrow, is to be ignorant of one half of nature.
Author: Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Grief teaches the steadiest minds to waver.
Author: Sophocles
Source:  Antigone
Waste not fresh tears over old griefs.
Author: Euripides
Source: 
Great grief does not of itself put an end to itself.
Author: Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.
Author: Khalil Gibran
Even his griefs are a joy long after to one that remembers all that he wrought and endured.
Author: Homer
Source:  The Odyssey
There are people who have an appetite for grief; pleasure is not strong enough and they crave pain. They have mithridatic stomachs which must be fed on poisoned bread, natures so doomed that no prosperity can sooth their ragged and dishevelled desolation.
Author: Ralph Waldo Emerson
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.
Author: Samuel Johnson
Source: 
Grief is the agony of an instant, the indulgence of grief the blunder of a life.
Author: Benjamin Disraeli
Source: 
Of all the griefs that harass the distressed,
Sure the most bitter is a scornful jest.

Author: Samuel Johnson
The display of grief makes more demands than grief itself. How few men are sad in their own company.
Author: Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Nothing becomes so offensive so quickly as grief. When fresh it finds someone to console it, but when it becomes chronic, it is ridiculed, and rightly.
Author: Lucius Annaeus Seneca
It is foolish to tear one's hair in grief, as though sorrow would be made less by baldness.
Author: Marcus Tullius Cicero
That grief is light which can take counsel.
Author: Lucius Annaeus Seneca
