When God threw me, a pebble, into this wondrous lake, I disturbed its surface with countless circles. But when I reached the depths, I became very still.

Passionate love is a quenchless thirst.

I purified my lips with sacred fire that I might speak of love, but when I opened my mouth to speak, I found myself mute.

The giving and receiving of pleasure is a need and an ecstasy.

You progress not through what has been done, but reaching towards what has yet to be done.

You pray in your distress and in your need; would that you might also pray in the fullness of your joy and in your days of abundance.

The strong grows in solitude where the weak withers away.

You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

Should we all confess our sins to one another we would all laugh at one another for our lack of originality

The best love come from the heart, not from the mouth.

The lust for comfort, that stealthy thing that enters the house a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master.

Beauty is that which attracts your soul, and that which loves to give and not to receive.

I am a poet who composes what life proses, and who proses what life composes.

I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires.

Faith is an oasis in the heart which will never be reached by the caravan of thinking.

Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

Be like the flower, turn your faces to the sun.

Only when you have a vision for tomorrow, you will find power and purpose in your today's work.

The only way to show our love for the messenger, is by living by his message.
