"Don't linger like this. You have decided to go away. Now go!" For she did not want him to see her crying. She was such a proud flower.

And besides, I like to cry. After I cry hard it's like it's morning again and I'm starting the day over.

Go ahead and cry if you have to.

A good night's sleep, or a ten-minute bawl, or a pint of chocolate ice cream, or all three together, is good medicine, Doug.

Never, at any crisis of your life, have I known you to have a handkerchief.

You take somebody that cries their goddam eyes out over phony stuff in the movies, and nine times out of ten they're mean bastards at heart.

Heaven knows we need never be ashamed of our tears, for they are rain upon the blinding dust of earth, overlying our hard hearts.

It is such a secret place, the land of tears.
