  • Tears Quote #1

    And all the host laughed and wept, and in the midst of their merriment and tears the clear voice of the minstrel rose like silver and gold, and all men were hushed. And he sang to them, now in the Elven-tongue, now in the speech of the West, until their hearts, wounded with sweet words, overflowed, and their joy was like swords, and they passed in thought out to regions where pain and delight flow together and tears are the very wine of blessedness.

    J.R.R. Tolkien

  • Tears Quote #2

    And down I went to fetch my bride:
    But, Alice, you were ill at ease;
    This dress and that by turns you tried,
    Too fearful that you should not please.
    I loved you better for your fears,
    I knew you could not look but well;
    And dews, that would have fall'n in tears,
    I kiss'd away before they fell.

    Alfred Lord Tennyson

  • Tears Quote #3

    And now I may dismiss my heroine to the sleepless couch, which is the true heroine's portion - to a pillow strewed with thorns and wet with tears. And lucky may she think herself, if she get another good night's rest in the course of the next three months.

    Jane Austen

  • Tears Quote #4

    And now, for something completely the same:

    Wasted time and wasted breath,
    's what I'll make, until my death.
    Helping people 'd be as good,
    but I wouldn't, if I could.

    For the few that help deserve,
    have no need, or not the nerve,
    help from strangers to accept,
    plus from mine a few have wept.

    Wept from joy, or from despair,
    or just from my vengeful stare.
    Ways I have, to look at stupid,
    make them see I am not Cupid.

    Make them see they are in error,
    for of truth I am a bearer.
    Most decide I'm just a bear,
    mauling at them, - like I care.

    Will Advise

  • Tears Quote #5

    And the poor lady, so small in her black satin, shrivelled up and sallow, with her funny corkscrew curls, took the little boy on her lap and put her arms around him and wept as though her heart would break. But her tears were partly tears of happiness, for she felt that the strangeness between them was gone. She loved him now with a new love because he had made her suffer.

    W. Somerset Maugham

  • Tears Quote #6

    And the rain drops kept falling like the sweetest music
    leaving tears on the glass,
    which is what music does to me
    most of the time
    but silence too. and rain.

    Charlotte Eriksson

  • Tears Quote #7

    and when I lift my head to scream out my fury, a million stars turn black and die. No one can see them, but they are my tears.

    N.K. Jemisin

  • Tears Quote #8

    And yet here he was, looking at Jem Carstairs, a boy so fragile-looking that he appeared to be made out of glass, with the hardness of his expression slowly dissolving into tentative uncertainty. You are not really dying, he said, the oddest tone to his voice, are you?
    Jem nodded. So they tell me.
    I am sorry, Will said.
    No, Jem said softly. He drew his jacket aside and took a knife from the belt at his waist. Don't be ordinary like that. Don't say you're sorry. Say you'll train with me.
    He held the knife to Will, hilt first. Charlotte held her breath, afraid to move. She felt as if she were watching something very important happen, though she could not have said what.
    Will reached out and took the knife, his eyes never leaving Jem's face. His fingers brushed the other boy's as he took the weapon from him. It was the first time, Charlotte thought that she had ever seen him touch any other person willingly.
    I'll train with you, he said.

    Cassandra Clare

  • Tears Quote #9

    Anna's eyes soften, and the stubborn tears begin to recede. The way she stands, the way she breathes, I know she wants to come closer. New knowledge fills up the air between us and neither of us wants to breathe it in.

    Kendare Blake

  • Tears Quote #10

    Apologizing is different from begging, it doesn't change your status, go ahead and get on your knees, spill tears if you got it, for the person you offended, if at all you had a place in their hearts, you'll be totally forgiven and accepted.

    Michael Bassey Johnson

  • Tears Quote #11

    As far as he could discover, there were no signs of spring. The decay that covered the surface of the mottled ground was not the kind in which life generates. Last year, he remembered, May had failed to quicken these soiled fields. It had taken all the brutality of July to torture a few green spikes through the exhausted dirt.
    What the little park needed, even more than he did, was a drink. Neither alcohol nor rain would do. Tomorrow, in his column, he would ask Broken-hearted, Sick-of-it-all, Desperate, Disillusioned-with-tubercular-husband and the rest of his correspondents to come here and water the soil with their tears. Flowers would then spring up, flowers that smelled of feet.
    Ah, humanity... But he was heavy with shadow and the joke went into a dying fall. He trist to break its fall by laughing at himself.

    Nathanael West

  • Tears Quote #12

    As he was about to climb yet another dune, his heart whispered, Be aware of the place where you are brought to tears. That's where I am, and thats where your treasure is.

    Paulo Coelho

  • Tears Quote #13

    As to the other three, if they had been perfection they would not have been real girls, and you could not have wept over their trials and laughed over their pleasures.

    Louisa May Alcott

  • Tears Quote #14

    At least the tears on my desk wipe away the dust that's covered this place

    Andrew Boddie

  • Tears Quote #15

    Aura, he whispered, I wish I could wipe away just one of your tears. Then I'd
    feel like a person again. Like I'm something more than a bunch of light.

    Jeri SmithReady

  • Tears Quote #16

    Because I want to know if I'm allowed to kiss your tears away. Because I want to be able to hold your hand. Because I like you.

    J.B. McGee

  • Tears Quote #17

    beneath torrents of spring rain, buds come to life - and we do too, beneath torments of tears

    John Geddes

  • Tears Quote #18

    Besides a burial service is rather lovely. Makes you feel uplifted, the grief is real. It makes you feel awful but it does something to you. I mean, it works it out like perspiration.

    Agatha Christie

  • Tears Quote #19

    Billy took off his tri-focals and his coat and his necktie and his shoes, and he closed the venetian blinds and then the drapes, and he lay down on the outside of the coverlet. But sleep would not come. Tears came instead. They seeped.

    [...] He closed his eyes, and opened them again. He was still weeping, but he was back in Luxembourg again. He was marching with a lot of other prisoners. It was a winter wind that was bringing tears to his eyes.

    Kurt Vonnegut

  • Tears Quote #20

    Books can break a man open,
    even ones about a panda, maybe especially so.

    Gregory Sherl

  • Tears Quote #21

    Books have a unique way of stopping time in a particular moment and saying: Let’s not forget this.

    Dave Eggers

  • Tears Quote #22

    Both tears and sweat are salty.
    but none of them are faulty.
    the tears can get you somewhere,
    the sweat will make you only wet.

    Ana Claudia Antunes

  • Tears Quote #23

    Breakups can be sad, but sometimes tears are the price we pay for a freedom we need.

    Steve Maraboli

  • Tears Quote #24

    But he knew instinctively what he suggested was impossible. She'd been through so much, and held her tears back for so long, that Royce doubted that anything could force her to shed them.

    Judith McNaught

  • Tears Quote #25

    But laugh? He pressed the flat of his hand against my stomach. Here lives laugh. He ran his finger straight up to my mouth and spread his fingers. Push back laugh is not good. Not healthy.

    Also cry? I asked. I traced an imaginary tear down my cheek with one finger.

    Also cry. He put his hand on his own belly. Ha ha ha, he said, pressing his hand to show me the motion of his stomach. Then his expression changed to sad. Huh huh huh, he heaved with exaggerated sobs, pressing his stomach again. Same place. Not healthy to push down.

    Patrick Rothfuss

  • Tears Quote #26

    But pearls are for tears, the old legend says, Gilbert had objected.
    I'm not afraid of that. And tears can be happy as well as sad. My very happiest moments have been when I had tears in my eyes—when Marilla told me I might stay at Green Gables—when Matthew gave me the first pretty dress I ever had—when I heard that you were going to recover from the fever. So give me pearls for our troth ring, Gilbert, and I'll willingly accept the sorrow of life with its joy. -Anne

    L.M. Montgomery

  • Tears Quote #27

    But tears are an indulgence. Memory sings.

    May Sarton

  • Tears Quote #28

    But tears don't bring back the dead. I learned that.

    Moira Young

  • Tears Quote #29

    But the absence of tears wasn't the same as an absence of feeling.

    Lisa Kleypas

  • Tears Quote #30

    But thinking never took away tears. Only time did.

    Allan Folsom
