25 Powerful Grief Quotes to Get Anyone Through the Hard Times
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.

1 Thomas Campbell
“To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.”
2 Nicholas Sparks
“Without you in my arms, I feel an emptiness in my soul. I find myself searching the crowds for your face—I know it’s an impossibility, but I cannot help myself.”
3 Jodi Picoult
“Grief is a curious thing, when it happens unexpectedly. It is a band-aid being ripped away, taking the top layer off a family. And the underbelly of a household is never pretty, ours no exception.”
4 Winnie The Pooh
“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.”
5 Elisabeth Kubler-Ross and David Kessler
“The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you’ll learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.”
6 Pablo Neruda
“Absence is a house so vast that inside you will pass through its walls and hang pictures on the air.”
7 Sarah Dessen
“Grieving doesn’t make you imperfect. It makes you human.”
8 Paulo Coelho
“Never. We never lose our loved ones. They accompany us; they don’t disappear from our lives. We are merely in different rooms.”
9 Pierre Auguste Renoir
“The pain passes, but the beauty remains.”
10 Jose N. Harris
“Tears shed for another person are not a sign of weakness. They are a sign of a pure heart.”
11 Irving Berlin
“The song is ended but the melody lingers on.”
12 Maya Angelou
“And when great souls die, after a period peace blooms, slowly and always irregularly. Spaces fill with a kind of soothing electric vibration. Our senses, restored, never to be the same, whisper to us. They existed. We can be. Be and be better. For they existed.”
13 Unknown
“When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.”
14 Mandy Hale
“You can’t truly heal from a loss until you allow yourself to really feel the loss.”
15 Dean Koontz

“Grief can destroy you — or focus you. You can decide a relationship was all for nothing if it had to end in death, and you alone. OR you can realize that every moment of it had more meaning than you dared to recognize at the time, so much meaning it scared you, so you just lived, just took for granted the love and laughter of each day, and didn’t allow yourself to consider the sacredness of it.”
16 Sylvan Kamens & Rabbi Jack Reimer
“At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer, we remember them.”
17 J.M. Barrie
“God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December.”
18 Rodgers and Hammerstein, Carousel
“Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart and you’ll never walk alone.”
19 John Green, The Fault In Our Stars
“You gave me a forever within the numbered days…”
20 Aeschylus
“There is no pain so great as the memory of joy in present grief.”
21 Anne Lamott
“You will lose someone you can’t live without,and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.”
22 Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince
“They say time heals all wounds, but that presumes the source of the grief is finite.”
23 Katie McGarry, Pushing the Limits
“I saw the world in black and white instead of the vibrant colours and shades I knew existed.”
24 Euripides
“Come back. Even as a shadow, even as a dream.”
25 Ranata Suzuki
“Your memory feels like home to me. So whenever my mind wanders, it always finds it’s way back to you.”
