10 QUOTES WITH «HEARTACHE»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word heartache.
1
Halle Berry
Let me tell you something - being thought of as a beautiful woman has spared me nothing in life. No heartache, no trouble. Love has been difficult. Beauty is essentially meaningless and it is always transitory.
2
Phil Bredesen
Good access to a doctor and a drugstore when you first have a problem can avoid a lot of cost and heartache later.
3
John Bytheway
While I am aware of no counsel on whether kissing should be reserved only for post-mission dating or courtship, I am aware of plenty of counsel concerning honesty in our actions and treating others with respect and kindness. Casual attitudes about expressions of affection such as kissing can cause much grief and heartache.
4
Pat Cash
There's a lot of heartache because you don't always win. You need loads of determination.
5
Rich Cohen
I have long believed that celebrity, the way we worship and package and sell our pop stars, is what filled the need for gods that was once filled by the pictures in stained glass. Hollywood is post-Christian Venice - in other words, a pantheon of saints without the hassle and heartache of religion.
6
Doug Collins
I've always said you have to go through a lot of heartache in life to feel joy.
7
Judy Collins
It is true that I have had heartache and tragedy in my life. These are things none of us avoids. Suffering is the price of being alive.
8
Justin Townes Earle
I discovered the same thing Gram Parsons did, that soul music and country music are practically identical. Based off of the same chord structures, and the songs are of heartache and loss. The main connection is they both came up in church.
9
Billy Graham
Racism and injustice and violence sweep our world, bringing a tragic harvest of heartache and death.
10
Colin Hay
Well, my thoughts about California are kind of mythological. To me, as well as being a real place, it's a place where people go to find something - to find happiness or to realize their dreams. So it has that kind of quality of heroism and heartache, and Australia has that, as well.
