Comforter Quotes

What eases loss when words can't.

This comforter quotes page centers on the idea, repeated almost word for word, that only time can comfort someone grieving the loss of a mother, paired with an admission that trying to speak comfort for great bereavement rarely helps.

Never does one feel oneself so utterly helpless as in trying to speak comfort for great bereavement. I will not try it. Time is the only comforter for the loss of a mother.

Quotes by Jane Welsh Carlyle

Time is the only comforter for the loss of a mother.

Quotes by Jane Welsh Carlyle

Religion will prove to the believer a comforter and a sure guide to the fountain of true happiness.

Quotes by Ellen G. White

Death is the liberator of him whom freedom cannot release, the physician of him whom medicine cannot cure, and the comforter of him whom time cannot console.

Quotes by Charles Caleb Colton

Death Quotes

As evidenced during my failed audition, I'm a thorough introvert who would completely hate living in a 'Real World' house. I would have taken my Ikea comforter to the confessional room and never come out.

Quotes by Andrea Seigel

Frequently Asked Questions

What is described as "the only comforter for the loss of a mother"?
