Henri Nouwen

A Jesus who never wept could never wipe away my tears.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Death in its substance has been removed, and only the shadow of it remains… Nobody is afraid of a shadow, for a shadow cannot block a man’s pathway for even a moment. The shadow of a dog can’t bite; the shadow of a sword can’t kill.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Charles Haddon Spurgeon

The bells sound, they sound quite differently than usual, when one knows of a dead person whom one loves.
Martin Luther

No greater sorrow than to recall a time of happiness in misery.
Dante Alighieri

Helen Keller

What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, For all that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
Helen Keller
