It's a sad man my friend who's livin' in his own skin and can't stand the company.

It is one of the most saddening things in life that, try as we may, we can never be certain of making people happy, whereas we can almost always be certain of making them unhappy.

The rose and the thorn, and sorrow and gladness are linked together.

I really believe that all of us have a lot of darkness in our souls. Anger, rage, fear, sadness. I don't think that's only reserved for people who have horrible upbringings. I think it really exists and is part of the human condition. I think in the course of your life you figure out ways to deal with that.

Do not make best friends with a melancholy sad soul. They always are heavily loaded, and you must bear half.
