Those who have suffered understand suffering and therefore extend their hand.

Patti Smith

Those who have suffered understand suffering and therefore extend their hand.

Patti Smith

If you’re going through hell, keep going.

Winston Churchill

There is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

Winnie the Pooh

No one ever told me that grief felt so much like fear.

C.S. Lewis

Grief is the price we pay for love.

Elizabeth II

Unhappiness is selfish, grief is selfish. For whom are the tears?

Grief makes one hour ten.

William Shakespeare

My Twin Passions, Homeopathy and Infidelity.

Prince Charles

Do you seriously expect me to be the first Prince of Wales in history not to have a mistress?

Prince Charles

Because I’ve been on the receiving end of infidelity, I know how much it hurts.

Rachel Hunter

An affair now and then is good for a marriage. It adds spice, stops it from getting boring… I ought to know.

Bette Davis

I know I will never have an affair with a married man again.

Monica Lewinsky

There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.

Diana, Princess of Wales

There is nothing more humiliating than loving someone so much that you forgive the infidelities.

Jerry Hall

I said to this priest: `Am I expected to believe that if I went out and had an affair that God was really going to be upset? Okay, thou shalt not kill… steal… but thou shalt not commit adultery? If no one is any the wiser, what the hell difference does it make?` He was lovely. He told me the Commandments were laid down for a lot of guys living in the desert.

Diana Dors

When he’s late for dinner, I know he`s either having an affair or is lying dead in the street, I always hope it`s the street.

Jessica Tandy

Frank Lloyd Wright designed the house I was living in. From what I understood, he was having an affair with the wife of the man he was designing the house for. That man was very tall. So Wright, short and vain, designs the house in such a way that a tall person couldn`t live in it without severe cranial damage. I hit my head *all* the time.

Donald Sutherland

Although she had a gift for infidelity, she always suffered if she had an affair with more than one man at a time.

Ex-husband Roger Vadim on Brigitte Bardot

I would advise any woman against having an affair with a married man believing he will ever leave his wife, no matter how often he says his wife does not understand him. Love is not as necessary to a man`s happiness as it is to a woman`s. If her marriage is satisfactory, a woman will seldom stray. A man can be totally contented and still be out howling at the moon.

Bette Davis

Men are much simpler mechanisms than women. Nothing changes them… even when they have a midlife crisis, they do it in a mindless way… That`s why I think we should let men go off and have affairs and drive fast cars and dream of being virile– and we should run the world.

Goldie Hawn

Love never dies a natural death…It dies of blindness and errors
and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of
withering, of tarnishing.

Anais Nin

No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear.  I am not afraid, but the sensation is like being afraid.  The same fluttering in the stomach, the same restlessness, the yawning.  I keep on swallowing.

CS Lewis

The beauty of the world…has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder.

Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own

A wounded deer – leaps highest.

Emily Dickinson

I am worn to a raveling.

Beatrix Potter, The Tailor of Gloucester

And though she (Anna) felt sure that a coldness was beginning, there was nothing she could do, she could not in any way alter her relations to him.  Just as before, only by love and by charm could she keep him.  And so, just as before, only by occupation in the day, by morphine at night, could she stifle the fearful thought of what would be if he ceased to love her.

Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy

Parting is all we know of heaven, and all we need of hell.

Emily Dickinson

Ah! I feel like death!  Great heaven, Have pity on me!

Violetta (after seeing Alfredo at a party after breaking up with him), in La Traviata, by Verdi

He did not love her as he had loved her hitherto, and to all else she was indifferent.

Thomas Hardy, Tess of the D’Urbervilles

A loved one destroys me, although he doesn’t mean to.

Hippolytos
by Euripides

Now I know I’ve got a heart, because it’s breaking.

Tin Woodsman, The Wizard of Oz

Sometimes I think I’ll give up trying, and just go completely Russian and sit on a stove and moan all day.

Dorothy Parker

I could feel tears brimming and sloshing in me like water in a glass that is unsteady and too full.

Sylvia Plath

That’s what I like about disappointment:
the way it slows you down,
when the querulous insistent chatter of desire
goes dead calm.

Tony Hoagland, ‘Disappointment’

They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.

Psalms

There’s nothing worse than rejection.  It’s worse than death.  I would wish sometimes for the guy to die because at least then I could go to his grave and visit.

Oprah Winfrey

Oh I wish that there were some wing, some wing,
Under which I could hide my head,
A soft grey wing, a beautiful thing,
Oh I wish that there were such a wing,

From I Wish by Stevie Smith

The hottest love has the coldest end.

Socrates

When you break up, your whole identity is shattered. It’s like death.

Dennis Quaid

The heart was made to be broken.

Oscar Wilde

A time will come when everyone will know what all this is for, why there is this misery; there will be no mysteries and, meanwhile, we have got to live…we have got to work, only to work!

Then with leaden feet which stumbled in a sudden darkness that overwhelmed me I groped my way back to the empty house.

from World Without End by Helen Thomas

What wound did ever heal but by degrees.

It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace.

George Bernard Shaw

Pleasure of love lasts but a moment, Pain of love lasts a lifetime.

Bette Davis

I feel a mortal isolation
Wrap each lovely limb in desolation,
Sight, hearing, all
Suffer a fall.
