If death disappears there will be no mystery in life. That's why a dead thing has no mystery in it, a corpse has no mystery in it, because it cannot die anymore. You think it has no mystery because life has disappeared? No, it has no mystery because now it cannot die anymore. Death has disappeared, and with death automatically life disappears. Life is only one of the ways of death's expression.

To transform breakdowns into breakthroughs is the whole function of a master.

We never ask the meaning of life when we are in love.

And one thing to be remembered: it is not that the people who are poor, starving, become frustrated with life - no. They cannot become frustrated. They have not lived yet - how can they be frustrated? They have hopes. A poor man always has hopes that something is going to happen - if not today then tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow; if not in this life then in the next life.

Illusions are bound to be shattered

<...> God is a person; godliness is a quality. You cannot become God, but you can be godly. <...>.

A woman is more humble, more grateful, more loving.
