77 Sad Quotes That Will Brighten Up Your Day

Sad

In the wise words of Jonathan Safran Foer, ‘you cannot protect yourself from sadness without protecting yourself from happiness.' Sadness and happiness walk hand in hand. Sadness helps you learn the true meaning of happiness.

It's like darkness and light. We wouldn't know light without having been through darkness. The sad moments teach us the importance of the happy ones. They help us appreciate happiness more. When you are happy, you look back at the sad times you have had and are filled with a sense of relief and gratitude because of the place you are currently in.

Happy times make you thankful. You wouldn't be thankful for them if you didn't know pain. If you only ever had happy days, you would think that life is just like that and you would never realize that you are going through a period of happiness.

When the curtains come down and sadness colors your life black, don't despair. It's always easier to remain dull and sullen. You barely have enough energy to see anything good. However, remember that everything has some goodness in it.

Even the darkest cloud carries rain with it. The darkest times will give you the deepest strength to be more resilient. It's also in the saddest times that you know your real friends. Sad times open your eyes to a lot going on around you.

You see all the things you have been taking for granted and you learn life's biggest lessons during these times. Remember that the sad times are not here to last. They too shall pass and happy clouds are waiting for you just a little distance away.

Our collection of sad quotes has quotes that are relatable, encouraging, and motivating during the darkest times and roughest storms. Read on for more inspiration.

Sad Quotes

Sadness is like a dark cloud that makes it impossible to see the sun. But the sun can only shine after heavy rain falls away. I let tears fall like rain, so clouds can part for the sun. I do something that makes me smile, like looking for a rainbow after a storm.

Life has knocked me down a few times, it showed me things I never wanted to see. I experienced sadness and failures. But one thing for sure, I always get up.

Shigure Sohma: There, isn't that better? Yuki's still looking for some ice, if you want it. Tohru Honda: I'm sorry. Shigure Sohma: You must be tired. It's a lot to happen in one day. Tohru Honda: Mm-hm. I... I lost my home again. Shigure Sohma: Are you ok? Tohru Honda: Yes. It's sad... but... not as sad as other things. Shigure Sohma: Like what? Tohru Honda: Like... not telling mom "be safe" on the day she died. I said that every morning: "bye! be safe!"... except that day, I didn't say it. I had a test. So I stayed up studying almost the whole night. And when it was time for mom to go to work, I didn't wake up. I couldn't tell her "be safe". And she never came home. I used to think about quitting school. Working. Mom told me she didn't finish school... but she always wished that she did. Kyoko Honda: That's why I need you to stick with it, so you can tell me what it feels like to hold that diploma in your hand. And then, maybe, you can have the life I never got to have. Tohru Honda: When she said that, that's when I knew. Why she worked so hard. It was all for me. And with everything she did... I couldn't even get up long enough to say "goodbye" as she was walking out the door. Not even that one little thing... and then she was gone. So now, I have to finish high school like mom wanted me to no matter what. I have to hold that diploma in my hand. I have to... for her. I can't give up... just because... of a fever... like this.

I... I was sad that I was born possessed by a vengeful spirit. After all... When I was young... My parents often fought because of me. Whenever I saw Mama crying by herself afterwards, it made me really sad.

I don't know his sadness. I don't know ANYTHING. If I really did disappear from this world... Would even a little of his sadness disappear? Maybe disappearing... Is the first truly useful thing I can do. If my dark, useless world is such a hated place then there really is no point to my existence.

It was sad, it was sad, it was sad. When Betty came back we didn't sing or laugh, or even argue. We sat drinking in the dark, smoking cigarettes, and when we went to sleep, I didn't put my feet on her body or she on mine like we used to. We slept without touching. We had both been robbed.

I felt like crying but nothing came out. It was just a sort of sad sickness, sick sad, when you can't feel any worse. I think you know it. I think everybody knows it now and then. But I think I have known it pretty often, too often.

This birth thing. And this death thing. Each one had it's turn. We entered alone and we left alone. And most of us lived lonely and frightened and incomplete lives. An incomparable sadness descended up on me. Seeing all that life that must die. Seeing all that life that would first turn to hate, to dementia, to neuroses, to stupidity, to fear, to murder, to nothing - nothing in life and nothing in death.

What should I do? I hate this. I don’t want to die like this. I don’t want to die! Tohru…she’ll be all on her own. I can’t leave her. We can’t part like this. What’s going to happen to her if I’m not there? She just started high school…she’s still a child. She…she’s still…Katsuya. I understand now. Leaving someone behind, being left behind…both of them are heartbreaking, aren’t they? I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Tohru. You at least knew I loved you, right? Tohru…I wanted to love you even more. Hey…somebody…anybody, please…protect that girl. She’s not very good at crying for herself, but even so, if she does cry, you have to stay with her. Somebody, please…hey, somebody…She’s my treasure. Protect her…somebody…anybody…

I’m not saying she doesn’t look cute or it’s embarrassing or anything. It’s just…it’s like, the same feeling I get when I see an old man buy his lunch at the convenience store! The old dude may not care, but it’s like, I can’t stand seeing that! Like it breaks my heart! And I got no reason, but I break down crying! Right there in the store! That’s right! I cry as I ring him up at the register!

The rain is, in a sense, The sole sad friend of those who find themselves Thinking, wide awake, until the dawn, Who, in bed, alone, with fevered hands, Listen to it, soothed. They like the company Of its faint moan across the sleeping plain, Its rustling in the garden all night long.

He had been unable to drive away the gloomy thoughts which kept sleep from his eyes for a long hour... He had solved any number of difficult arithmetical problems, and mentally repeated the same prayer at least twenty times; but the sleep which he obtained after waiting so long and making so many efforts, brought neither rest nor comfort, and the old man struggled all night in the fiery embrace of the fever-god. It was only in the morning, after awaking and happily falling off into a second sleep, that he enjoyed the peace and repose of both body and soul, which usually characterized his rest. When he again opened his eyes after this delightful morning's nap, a joyous ray, cast by the rising sun through the bed curtains, danced on the counterpane like a streak of gold, and gave a marvellous brilliancy to its variegated embroideries.

Hank hugged me and said, “At least it was instant. At least there wasn’t any pain.” I knew he was only trying to help, but he didn't get it. There was pain. A dull endless pain in my gut that wouldn't go away even when I knelt on the stingingly frozen tile of the bathroom, dry-heaving.

Howl pointed a shaky hand up toward the canopy of his bed. “That’s why I love spiders. ‘If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, try, again.’ I keep trying,” he said with great sadness. “But I brought it on myself by making a bargain some years ago, and I know I shall never be able to love anyone properly now.” The water running out of Howl’s eyes was definitely tears now.

Akira Sohma...The previous head of the family, and Akito's father. I could even see it as a child. Akira-san...was beautifully fleeting. His doctor had said...that he didn't have long to live. Perhaps it was because that sadness. Perhaps knowing that his life would be extinguished at such a young age...is what produced that otherworldly beauty.

“I only want to catch you,” Michael explained. “I won’t hurt you.” “No! No!” the star crackled desperately. “That’s wrong! I’m supposed to die!” “But I could save you if you’d let me catch you,” Michael told it gently. “No!” cried the star. “I’d rather die!” It dived away from Michael’s fingers. Michael plunged for it, but it was too quick for him. It swooped for the nearest marsh pool, and the black water leaped into a blaze of whiteness for just an instant. Then there was a small, dying sizzle. When Sophie hobbled over, Michael was standing watching the last light fade out of a little round lump under the dark water. “That was sad,” Sophie said.

We're not really getting along… She always says I'm… that I'm no good. The things I do are always wrong. She says all these terrible things all the time and says it's for my own good. If I talk back, she only blows up at me… but if I stay quiet… I start to feel like I'm the punching bad. I start to wish… she wasn't around.

She was so sad, and I didn't know what to say or do. I think she counted on me to be the one person who would always say and do the right things to help her, but I couldn't. I just thought she was looking for flowers. I didn't know she was going to go. She was drunk, just trashed drunk, and I really didn't think she would drive or anything. I thought she would just cry herself to sleep or something. She walked away, and then I heard a car start. I don't know what I was thinking. So I let her go, too. And I'm sorry. I know you loved her. It was hard not to.

And now I may dismiss my heroine to the sleepless couch, which is the true heroine's portion - to a pillow strewed with thorns and wet with tears. And lucky may she think herself, if she get another good night's rest in the course of the next three months.

I guarantee you'll start to feel good.

"I miss her so much. So much. I can’t sleep. I just cry. Sometimes when I’m in bed, and my arm loses circulation, or my leg is in a weird position, I think of her. Her stiffness. I just lay there, with my body, frozen, imagining if that’s what she feels like... I lay my tongue out like this, all dry." He deforms himself. "I twist my wrist, and I tell her, 'Goodnight.'"

Censorship is the tool of those who have the need to hide actualities from themselves and from others. Their fear is only their inability to face what is real, and I can't vent any anger against them. I only feel this appalling sadness. Somewhere, in their upbringing, they were shielded against the total facts of our existence. They were only taught to look one way when many ways exist.

The coffin was closed. Closed. Never going to see her again. Can't kiss her forehead. Can't see her one last time. But I needed to, I needed to see her, and much to loud, I asked, "Why is it closed?" and the man, whose potbelly pushed out from his too-tight suit, turned around and walked toward me.

Gabrielle: I need to ask you a question. Manuel: Of course. Gabrielle: Why did you leave us? I'm just trying to understand why you would just go like that. Manuel: Okay. Because one day, I looked at your mother and you, and realized you both didn't mean anything to me anymore. I know it's hard to understand. But I wasted time being with you and her. And she f**king dies and leaves me with you, who I never wanted. Any more questions? You don't need to come back.
