“Time engraves our faces with all the tears we have not shed.”

“How odd it is that we so often weep for each other’s distresses, when we shed not a tear for our own!”

“Shed no tear! O shed no tear!
The flower will bloom another year.”

“And the tear that we shed, though in secret it rolls,
Shall long keep his memory green in our souls.”

“We must never shed tears
That is the life form’s defeat and if we give into the emotions then it only becomes proof of our inability to control it.”

“Words are tears that have been written down. Tears are words that need to be shed. Without them, joy loses all its brilliance and sadness has no end.”

“I could almost shed a tear
but let’s shine in the time we have remaining
you’re a tough old gal
but a dog is just a pal
and believe me, my dear,
I’m not complaining”

“There is an ancient tribal proverb I once heard in India. It says that before we can see properly we must first shed our tears to clear the way.”

“I shed more tears than God could ever have required.”

“Let's try our best? I hope that someday the many, many tears that were shed will be worth it.”
