Let no man therefore beat himself any more, nor wail, neither disparage Christ's achievement. For indeed He overcame death. Why then do you wail for nought? The thing has become a sleep. Why lament and weep? -- St. John Chrysostom, Homily 31 on Matthew

I'm glad you do. They come from a variety of sources; I've lately been reading St. John Chrysostom's works online here:
