  Mark Twain

  porque los demás no reconozcan sus méritos.

  Es como un demonio habitar en él;
  Como Cristo es que el pecado se aflija,
  Como Dios es que todo pecado se vaya.

• Todos esos años caí en la gran mentira palaciega de que el duelo debe superarse lo antes posible y en privado. Pero lo que he descubierto es que el miedo al duelo durante toda la vida nos mantiene en un lugar estéril y aislado, y que sólo el duelo puede curar el duelo. El paso del tiempo atenuará la agudeza, pero el tiempo por sí solo, sin la experiencia directa del dolor, no lo curará.

• If we cannot serve a person who we can see, how can we serve a God whom we cannot see? Some just have to have their own thing and be the “boss”. I grieve for these people who have become the King of their own tiny mound, when they could have been a Prince in a major organization.

• And when that bad news washes over you and that pain sponges in, I just hope you feel like you've always got two choices.  One, you can swirl and twirl and gloom and doom forever.  Or two, you can grieve, and then face the future with newly sober eyes.

• I am quite ready to acknowledge . . . that I ought to be grieved at death, if I were not persuaded that I am going to other gods who are wise and good (of this I am as certain as I can be of any such matters), and to men departed who are better than those whom I leave behind. And therefore I do not grieve as I might have done, for I have good hope that there is yet something remaining for the dead.

  Socrates

• I had a dove and the sweet dove died; And I have thought it died of grieving: O, what could it grieve for? Its feet were tied, With a silken thread of my own hands' weaving.

• Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard Are sweeter: therefore, ye soft pipes, play on; Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd, Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone. Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare; Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss, Though winning near the goal yet, do not grieve; She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss, For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair!

• The wind shrieks, the wind grieves; It dashes the leaves on walls, it whirls then again; And the enormous sleeper vaguely and stupidly dreams And desires to stir, to resist a ghost of pain.

• What sometimes enrages me and always disappoints and grieves me is the preference of great schools of learning for the derivative as opposed to the original, for the conventional and thin which can be duplicated in many copies rather than the new and powerful, and for arid correctness and limitation of scope and method rather than for universal newness and beauty, wherever it may be seen.

• Grieve not the Christ of God, who redeems us; and remember that we grieve Him most when we will not let Him pour His love upon us, but turn a sullen, unresponsive unbelief towards His pleading grace, as some glacier shuts out the sunshine from the mountain-side with its thick-ribbed ice.

• Era una extraña ligereza, una sensación de ir a la deriva. Gravedad cero. Comprendí que todo lo que una vez me pareció sólido e inamovible podía desaparecer flotando. Y que esto era una verdad de la vida, no una ilusión en la mente afligida de un niño. Todo lo que es duro y pesado en tu mundo está formado por miles de millones de moléculas en constante movimiento que ofrecen la ilusión de permanencia. Pero todo tiende a romperse y a caer. Algunas cosas se van más rápido, más sorprendentemente, que otras.

• Another misconception is that if we truly loved someone, we will never finish with our grief, as if continued sorrow is a testimonial to our love. But true love does not need grief to support its truth. Love can last in a healthy and meaningful way, once our grief is dispelled. We can honor our dead more by the quality of our continued living than by our constantly remembering the past.

• There are no words to describe the pain of burying a child, and specifically there is no word to label their new, lifelong status. If you lose a spouse, you are a widow; if you lose a parent, you are an orphan. But what about when you lose a child? How do you name something you cannot comprehend?
