To cry was to release all sorts of ugly little pressures and tensions. Like waking out of a long, dark dream to a sun-filled day.

Anne McCaffrey

And all the host laughed and wept, and in the midst of their merriment and tears the clear voice of the minstrel rose like silver and gold, and all men were hushed. And he sang to them, now in the Elven-tongue, now in the speech of the West, until their hearts, wounded with sweet words, overflowed, and their joy was like swords, and they passed in thought out to regions where pain and delight flow together and tears are the very wine of blessedness.

J.R.R. Tolkien

I never heard weeping like that before or after; not from a child, nor a man wounded in the palm, nor a tortured man, nor a girl dragged off to slavery from a taken city. If you heard the woman you most hate in the world weep so, you would go to comfort her. You would fight your way through fire and spears to reach her. And I knew who wept, and what had been done to her, and who had done it.

C.S. Lewis

Єсть на світі доля,
А хто її знає?
Єсть на світі воля,
А хто її має?
Єсть люде на світі —
Сріблом-злотом сяють,
Здається, панують,
А долі не знають,—
Ні долі, ні волі!
З нудьгою та з горем
Жупан надівають,
А плакати — сором.
Возьміть срібло-злото
Та будьте багаті,
А я візьму сльози —
Лихо виливати;
Затоплю недолю
Дрібними сльозами,
Затопчу неволю
Босими ногами!
Тоді я веселий,
Тоді я багатий,
Як буде серденько
По волі гуляти!

Taras Shevchenko

But he knew instinctively what he suggested was impossible. She'd been through so much, and held her tears back for so long, that Royce doubted that anything could force her to shed them.

Prim, let go," I say harshly, because this is upsetting me and I don't want to cry. When they televise the replay of the reapings tonight, everyone will make note of my tears, and I'll be marked as an easy target. A weakling. I will give no one that satisfaction.

Suzanne Collins
