Can anything be sadder than work left unfinished? Yes, work never begun.
Christina G. Rossetti
I'm more prone to his '70s material, which is what I was around for and watched a lot. I listen to a lot of that stuff. It probably influenced me quite a bit. I'm more drawn to the darker, sadder songs.
Lisa Marie Presley
It is sad not to love, but it is much sadder not to be able to love.
Miguel de Unamuno
It is sadder to find the past again and find it inadequate to the present than it is to have it elude you and remain forever a harmonious conception of memory.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
It were a real increase of human happiness, could all young men from the age of nineteen be covered under barrels, or rendered otherwise invisible; and there left to follow their lawful studies and callings, till they emerged, sadder and wiser, at the age of twenty-five.
Thomas Carlyle
My earlier poems were sadder than my poems are today, perhaps because I wrote them in confusion or when I was unhappy. But I am not a melancholy person, quite the contrary, no one enjoys laughing more than I do.
Anne Stevenson
No feature of the Obama presidency has been sadder than its constant efforts to divide us, to curry favor with some Americans by castigating others.
Mitch Daniels
No sadder proof can be given by a man of his own littleness than disbelief in great men.
Thomas Carlyle
Nothing is sadder than having worldly standards without worldly means.
Van Wyck Brooks
Somehow, it seems that the sadder a song is, the happier I feel. The release of emotions that many would label as "negative" is actually a liberating process for me.
Grey DeLisle
There is no sadder sight than a young pessimist.
Mark Twain
There's nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child.
