About This Quote

It's for objects, not people. This is a common saying or phrase used to express sympathy to someone who has lost something, whether it be their beloved pet, their favorite book, or any other object. The phrase is used because the person that said it was probably trying to express that they sympathize with the other person that has lost the object. However, this quote may be misconstrued if interpreted as meaning that people are less important than objects.

Although this statement might seem like an innocent statement, it does hold some misleading implications. It's true that this quote does not mean it's wrong to be sad about something you've lost. However, the original meaning of the quote is not to be interpreted in this way because it is, in fact, simply an expression of sympathy.
