Sorrow being the natural and direct offspring of sin, that which first
brought sin into the world must, by necessary consequence, bring in
sorrow too.--_South._
In extent sorrow is boundless. It pours from ten million sources, and
floods the world. But its depth is small. It drowns few.--_Charles
Buxton._
It is the veiled angel of sorrow who plucks away one thing and another
that bound us here in ease and security, and, in the vanishing of these
dear objects, indicates the true home of our affections and our
peace.--_Chapin._
The mind profits by the wreck of every passion, and we may measure our
road to wisdom by the sorrows we have undergone.--_Bulwer-Lytton._
