PeopleImagesGetty Images

Losing someone close to you — whether that's because of a death in the family, a divorce, or the ending of a friendship — is hard. Along with the initial shock, it's a challenge when you have to go on and learn how to navigate the future without them by your side. And because the grieving process is different for everyone, it can often be lonely and isolating. That why we've rounded up powerful quotes about grief to help you put into words what you're feeling. You can use these messages as a reminder that you're not alone, or you can share them with someone who is experiencing a loss as a source of comfort.

Some of the sayings below are short and positive to help drive home that time can heal all wounds, even if right now it doesn't feel that way. Others are longer (like the ones from famous authors) and a bit solemn for the days when you just want to read something that relates to your sadness.

The most important thing to remember is that grieving is totally normal, but if you need help getting through the bereavement process, reach out to the National Alliance on Mental Illness for guidance at 800-950-6264.

64 Quotes After Grief and Life After Loss Whats your Grief

Here are 64 (okay fine, 63) quotes about grief, coping, and life after loss. Although we love a good grief quote, Litsa and I were slow to join in on the quote-pic phenomenon. The internet just seemed plastered with inspirational platitudes pasted on pictures of sunsets and rainbows. It all seemed so trite and reductive we decided not to add to the noise. Then we got over ourselves because, well, a good quote serves many purposes. A quote helps us put our own thoughts and feelings into perspective. It allows us to use the words of others to communicate or to convey a message. It helps us to feel a sense of commonality when we find our feelings, experiences, and observations match those of another. We hope something here resonates with you (and feel free to steal and share any of these images with your grieving family and friends).

“The times you lived through, the people you shared those times with; Nothing brings it all to life like an old mix tape. It does a better job of storing up memories than actual brain tissue can do. Every mix tape tells a story. Put them together, and they can add up to the story of a life.”

~ Rob Sheffield, Love is a Mix Tape

~ Thomas Campbell


“When I think of death, and of late the idea has come with alarming frequency, I seem at peace with the idea that a day will dawn when I no longer be among those living in this valley of strange humors.

I can accept the idea of my own demise, but I am unable to accept the death of anyone else.

I find it impossible to let a friend or relative go into that country to no return.

Disbelief becomes my close companion, and anger follows in its wake.

I answer the heroic question ‘Death, where is thy sting?’ with ‘It is here in my heart and mind and memories.'”

~ Maya Angelou, When I Think of Death

~ Colette


“There are no happy endings. Endings are the saddest part, so just give me a happy middle and a very happy start.”

Faceless and pale as china

The round sky goes on minding its business.

Your absence is inconspicuous,

Nobody can tell what I lack.”

~ Sylvia Plath, Parliament Hill Fields


“Everyone must leave something behind when he dies, my grandfather said. A child or a book or a painting or a house or a wall built of a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted. Something your hand touches some way so your soul has somewhere to go when you die, and when people look at that tree or that flower you planted, you’re there.”

~ Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451


“When we have joy we crave to share; We remember them.

~ Sylvan Kamens & Rabbi Jack Riemer

~ Henry David Thoreau

In all the old familiar places

That this heart of mine embraces

All day through.”

~ Billie Holiday, I’ll Be Seeing You

One more time

One more sunset, maybe I’d be satisfied

But then again

I know what it would do

Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you.”

~ Diamond Rio, One More Day


“You gave me a forever within the numbered days…”

~ John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

My longest relationship.

My only experience of maternal love.

My constant companon.

My best friend.

Duck.”

which is all but certain
then in the moment
before you will see me
become someone dead
in a transformation
as quick as a shooting star’s
I will cross over into you
and ask you to carry
not only your own memories
but mine too until you
too lie down and erase us
both together into oblivion.”

~ Galway Kinnell, Promissory Note

They’re cutting down trees

They’re putting up reindeer

And singing songs of joy and peace

Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on.

Smiles from the threshold of the year to come,

Whispering ‘It will be happier’…”

The autumn wind smells of snow,
of the first and unfaithful.
Used to windy nights,
we don't sleep well in a warm house.
Both of us can't sleep with you,
though it's quiet and dark.
Both of you and I imagine,
both of us imagine the same thing.
That in impatience and in the fog,
rushing from a steep pass,
we forgot in the Tien Shan
our part of love and life.

Making your own judgment is especially important in important matters. Fools ruin themselves by not thinking; unable to understand half of the matter, unable to foresee either harm or benefit, they cannot act properly; they give a lot of weight to things of little importance and little weight to things that are very important, evaluating everything in reverse. Many people lose their mind just because they don't have it. There are things that one must penetrate deeply and keep in the depths of one's mind. The wise man makes a judgment about everything, but he especially delves into what has a deep and higher meaning, for he believes that there is more than he supposes. Thus reflection penetrates beyond the original judgment.
