Of all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: It might have been!
John Greenleaf Whittier

"Oh the gladness of their gladness when they're glad, And the sadness of their sadness when they're sad; But the gladness of their gladness, and the sadness of their sadness, Are as nothing to their badness when they're bad"
James Matthew Barry
