The greatest distance in this World is not that between living and death, it is when I am just before you, and you don't know that I Love You.

I'm lost in the middle of my birthday. I want my friends, their touch, with the earth's last love. I will take life's final offering, I will take the last human blessing.

Set the bird's wings with gold and it will never again soar in thesky.

The greed for fruit misses the flower.

I have on my table a violin string. It is free to move in any direction I like. If I twist one end, it responds; it is free. But it is not free to sing. So I take it and fix it into my violin. I bind it and when it is bound, it is free for the first time to sing.

The truth comes as conqueror only because we have lost the art of receiving it as guest.

O Beauty, find thyself in love, not in the flattery of thy mirror.
