Reason without learning is like the untilled soil, or like the human body that lacks nourishment.

Wailing and lamentation befit those who stand before the throne of life and depart without leaving in its hands a drop of the sweat of their brows or the blood of their hearts.

Faith is a knowledge within the heart, beyond the reach of proof.
