He who wears his morality but as his best garment were better naked. The wind and the sun will tear no holes in his skin.

He that tries to seize an opportunity after it has passed him by is like one who sees it approach but will not go to meet it.

Sit by me, my beloved, and listen to my heart; smile, for your happiness is a symbol of our future.

Love is quivering happiness.

Rest in reason. Move in Passion.

Your house shall be not an anchor but a mast It shall not be a glistening film that covers a wound, but an eyelid that guards the eye.

Would that I were a dry well, and that the people tossed stones into me, for that would be easier than to be a spring of flowing water that the thirsty pass by, and from which they avoid drinking.
