“If she's sad or upset or angry, she needs to be alone-she fears a man dismissing her womanly tears.”

“Whenever she felt like crying, she would instead become angry—at someone else or at herself—which meant that it was rare for her to shed tears.”

“When maiden loves, she sits and sighs,
She wanders to and fro -
Unbidden tear-drops fill her eyes,
And to all questions she replies
With a sad "heigh ho!"”

“Sometimes when she was alone, and she knew she was alone, she permitted her mind to play in a garden, and she smiled.”

“Willow: Tell me a story.
Tara: Okay. Once upon a time, there was, um… a kitty. She was very little, and she was all alone, and nobody wanted her.
Willow: This is a very upsetting story.”

“She is so lost in her sadness that she has no idea how visible it is.”

“She seemed imprisoned in her sadness.”

“Been drinking 3 weeks in a row just to forget
About the pain and the tears and the shame and the fears
And I blame her for these but she ain’t really here
She walked away”

“She needed to talk, she needed to cry, she needed to vent all her frustrations and disappointments.”

“She look'd down to blush, and she look'd up to sigh,
With a smile on her lips, and a tear in her eye.”
