“It was glorious to see—if your heart were iron,
And you could keep from grieving at all the pain.”

“One sees you sitting in the sun
Asleep;
With the sweeter gifts you had
And didn't keep,
One grieves that the altars of
Your vice lie deep.”

“There in that pool stained with green blood, he had learned two things: one was that all the pain stopped when you stopped fighting death; and the other was that as long as you could still hear your heart beating, you had to keep fighting back.”

“What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve.”
Vulgo dicitur: Quod non videt oculus, cor non dolet.

“what the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over”

“What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over.”

“What the eye doesn’t see the heart doesn’t grieve over.”

“Your street, rich street or poor
Used to always be sure, on your street
There's a place in your heart you know from the start
Can't be complete outside of the street
Keep moving on through the joy and the pain
Sometimes you got to look back
To the street again
Would you prefer all those castles in Spain?
Or the view of your street from your window pane?”

“Don't hold to anger, hurt or pain. They steal your energy and keep you from love.”

“If there is anything so precious that without it history and the world will be destroyed, where will you keep it? You will naturally want to keep it in the deepest part of your mind. If you desire to place it in the depths of your mind, it needs to be invisible. It is for this very reason that God exists as an invisible being. It is fortunate that He is invisible, for if He were visible how could a great contest to gain Him be avoided? It would be difficult for God to endure the pain of seeing it.”
