Sorrow is easy to express and so hard to tell.

Sorrow is easy to express and so hard to tell.

Summary

This quote suggests that it is often easier for people to outwardly show their sorrow or sadness, through facial expressions or tears, than it is for them to truly verbalize and articulate their deep emotions. It implies that while it may be instinctive for individuals to reveal their pain through physical manifestations, finding the right words to accurately convey the depths of their sorrow can be much more challenging. This highlights the complexity and difficulty in expressing intense emotions with complete clarity.

When you wake up each morning, you can choose to be happy or choose to be sad. Unless some terrible catastrophe has occurred the night before, it is pretty much up to you. Tomorrow morning, when the sun shines through your window, choose to make it a happy day.

In the conditions of modern life the rule is absolute, the race which does not value trained intelligence is doomed. Not all your heroism, not all your social charm, not all your wit, not all your victories on land or at sea, can move back the finger of fate. To-day we maintain ourselves. To-morrow science will have moved forward yet one more step, and there will be no appeal from the judgment which will then be pronounced on the uneducated.
