For sudden Joys, like Griefs, confound at first.

Daniel Defoe

Friendships multiply joys and divide griefs.

Thomas Fuller

Freindships multiply joys and divide griefs

Henry George Bohn

Friendship redoubleth joys, and cutteth griefs in half.

Francis Bacon

We can't choose our lives, but we can DECIDE what to do with the joys or griefs we're given.

Paulo Coelho

Nothing opens the heart like a true friend, to whom you may impart griefs, joys, fears, hopes...and whatever lies upon the heart.

Francis Bacon

The greatest griefs are silent.

Wally Lamb

They are the silent griefs which cut the heart-strings.

John Ford

From nothing else but the brain come joys, delights, laughter and sports, and sorrows, griefs, despondency, and lamentations

Hippocrates

It is commonly supposed that the uniformity of a studious life affords no matter for narration: but the truth is, that of the most studious life a great part passes without study. An author partakes of the common condition of humanity; he is born and married like another man; he has hopes and fears, expectations and disappointments, griefs and joys, and friends and enemies, like a courtier or a statesman; nor can I conceive why his affairs shuld not excite curiosity as much as the whisper of a drawing-room, or the factions of a camp.

Samuel Johnson

He who can conceal his joys, is greater than he who can hide his griefs

Johann Kaspar Lavater

Who partakes in another's joys is a more humane character than he who partakes in his griefs.

Johann Kaspar Lavater

There have been joys too great to be described in words, and there have been griefs upon which I have not dared to dwell, and with these in mind I say, climb if you will, but remember that courage and strength are naught without prudence, and that a momentary negligence may destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste, look well to each step, and from the beginning think what may be the end.

Edward Whymper

The true poetry of life: the poetry of the commonplace, of the ordinary man, of the plain, toil-worn woman, with their loves and their joys, their sorrows and their griefs.
