Which of you would be silent - when all else sings together in unison?

Our pain carves out a larger space for love to fill.

When life does not find a singer to sing her heart she produces a philosopher to speak her mind.

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

Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing. And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb. And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.

And when you crush an apple with your teeth, say to it in your heart: Your seeds shall live in my body, And the buds of your tomorrow shall blossom in my heart, And your fragrance shall be my breath, And together we shall rejoice through all the seasons.

You are a flower crushed beneath the feet of the animal that is concealed in a human being. Take comfort, in that you are the flower crushed and not the foot that has crushed it.
