Love cannot be seeded into someone. It is a fire that is difficult to kindle but once it takes on, it is equally difficult to extinguish.
Mirza Asadullah Khan GhalibWhereas it is difficult for everything to work out easily, A man cannot even afford to be a human
Mirza Asadullah Khan GhalibThis earth, burnished by hearing the name, is so certain of love, that the sky bends unceasingly down, to greet its own light.
Mirza Asadullah Khan GhalibHe gave me heaven and earth, and assumed I'd be satisfied; Actually I was too embarrassed to argue. The spiritual seekers are tired, two or three at each stage of the path. The rest who have given up never knew your address at all. There are so many in this gathering who wish the candle well. But if the being of the candle is melting, what can the sorrow-sharers do?
