“Crying can bring relief, as long as you don't cry alone.”
“Tears disturb and confuse men, but women know the relief they can bring. I didn't cry because I couldn't deal with my life, but because I could.”
“Smile and the world smiles with you, cry and you cry alone.”
“- Elfrida, are you about to cry?- I might be.- Why?- Relief. ♥”
“Laugh and the world laughs with you (unless you're at a funeral), cry and you cry alone.”
“If outer events bring him to a position where he can bear them no longer and force him to cry out to the higher power in helplessness for relief, or if inner feelings bring humiliation and recognition of his dependence on that power, this crushing of the ego may open the door to grace.”
