Quote by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

There is no grief like the grief that does not speak.

There is no grief like the grief that does not speak.

Summary

This quote suggests that the silent sorrow one experiences is the most painful kind of grief. It highlights the profound weight of suffering that people often carry within themselves without expressing or sharing it. The absence of a voice to articulate and share their pain deepens their grieving process, as there is no outlet for their emotions. It acts as a poignant reminder of the importance of communication and seeking support during difficult times to alleviate the burden of unspoken grief.

We are resolved to protect individual freedom of belief. This freedom must include the child as well as the parent. The freedom for which we stand is not freedom of belief as we please,... not freedom to evade responsibility, ...but freedom to be honest in speech and action, freedom to respect one's own integrity of thought and feeling, freedom to question, to investigate, to try, to understand life and the universe in which life abounds, freedom to search anywhere and everywhere to find the meaning of Being, freedom to experiment with new ways of living that seem better than the old.
