Cicero’s Tusculan Disputations

BOOK IV
12/54

Detraction (and I mean by that, jealousy) is a grief even at another's enjoying what I had a great inclination for.

Pity is a grief at the misery of another who suffers wrongfully; for no one is moved by pity at the punishment of a parricide or of a betrayer of his country.

Vexation is a pressing grief.

Mourning is a grief at the bitter death of one who was dear to you.

Sadness is a grief attended with tears.
