Author: Saint Aurelius Augustine
About: Tears
"And friends, dear friends,–when it shall be
That this low breath is gone from me,
And gone my bier ye come to weep,
Let One, most loving of you all,
Say, "Not a tear must o'er her fall;
He giveth His beloved sleep."
Author: Elizabeth Barrett Browning
About: Tears
"Thank God for grace,
Ye who weep only! If, as some have done,
Ye grope tear-blinded in a desert place
And touch but tombs,–look up! Those tears will run
Soon in long rivers down the lifted face,
And leave the vision clear for stars and sun."
Author: Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Love half regrets to kiss it dry."
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)
About: Tears
"Oh! too convincing–dangerously dear–
In woman's eye the unanswerable tear!
That weapon of her weakness she can wield,
To save, subdue–at once her spear and shield."
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)
About: Tears
"What gem hath dropp'd, and sparkles o'er his chain?
The tear most sacred, shed for other's pain,
That starts at once–bright pure–from Pity's mine,
Already polish'd by the hand divine!"
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)
About: Tears
"She was a good deal shock'd; not shock'd at tears,
For women shed and use them at their liking;
But there is something when man's eye appears
Wet, still more disagreeable and striking."
Author: Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron)
