Tragedy sits in sublime rapture amidst this abundance of life, suffering and delight, listening to a far-off, melancholy song which tells of the Mothers of Being, whose names are Delusion, Will, Woe.

Now dare to be tragic men, for you will be redeemed. You shall join the Dionysiac procession from India to Greece! Gird yourselves for a hard battle, but have faith in the miracles of your God!

When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways-either by losing hope and falling into self-destructive habits or by using the challenge to find our inner strength.

Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.

There's no tragedy in life like the death of a child. Things never get back to the way they were.

So many other things for us to see, Things to be, Our history so full of tragedy and misery.
