I died from a mineral and plant became, Died from the plant, took a sentient frame; Died from the beast, donned a human dress - When by my dying did I ever grow less.
RumiWhen you're traveling, ask the traveler for advice / not someone whose lameness keeps him in one place.
RumiIf you have no eyes, do not walk blindly; take a staff in your hand. If you have no staff of insight, do not walk without a guide.
Rumi
