The comforter's head never aches. [ English Proverb, collected by George Herbert ]

It seldom visits sorrow; when it doth,
It is a comforter. [ William Shakespeare ]

Death! to the happy thou art terrible;
But how the wretched love to think of thee,
O thou true comforter! the friend of all Who have no friend beside! [ Southey ]

He who loveth a book will never want a faithful friend, a wholesome counsellor, a cheerful companion, or an effectual comforter. [ Barrow ]

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. [ Colton ]
