Sorrow is brief but joy is endless

No greater grief than to remember days of gladness when sorrow is at hand

Joy, in Nature's wide dominion, Mightiest cause of all is found; And 'tis joy that moves the pinion When the wheel of time goes round.

We all struggle alone through the ten thousand joys and ten thousand sorrows of our lives.

One must have sorrow to truly appreciate joy.

Pure and complete sorrow is as impossible as pure and complete joy.
