The envier praises me unknowingly.

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

For in truth it is life that gives unto life-while you, who deem yourself a giver, are but a witness.

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.

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

Let ignorance reproduce itself until it is weary of its own offspring.

Love prides itself not only in the one who loves, but also in the beloved.
