Ella Wheeler Wilcox Quotes About Loss

Quotes about: Loss

• Let no one pray that they know not sorrow,
  Let no soul ask to be free from pain,
  For the gall of to-day is the sweet of to-morrow,
  And the moment's loss is the lifetime's gain.
  Through want of a thing does its worth redouble,
  Through hunger's pangs does the feast content,
  And only the heart that has harboured trouble
  Can fully rejoice when joy is sent.
  Let no one shrink from the bitter tonics
  Of grief, and yearning, and need, and strife,
  For the rarest chords in the soul's harmonics
  Are found in the minor strains of life.

• I will not doubt, though sorrows fall like rain, And troubles swarm like bees about a hive; I shall believe the heights for which I strive Are only reached by anguish and by pain; And though I groan and tremble with my crosses, I yet shall see, through my severest losses, The greater gain.
