Some nights stay up till dawn, as the moon sometimes does for the sun. Be a full bucket pulled up the dark way of a well, then lifted out into light.

There's a hidden sweetness in the stomach's emptiness. We are lutes, no more, no less. If the soundbox is stuffed full of anything, no music.... When you're full of food and drink, Satan sits where your spirit should.

Tend to your vital heart, and all that you worry about will be solved.

Loosen the bonds of avarice from your hands and neck.

Love’s secret is always lifting its head out from under the covers, “Here I am!”

Give your weakness to one who helps.

From understanding comes LOVE.
