The middle path is the way to wisdom

Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.

Learn the alchemy true human beings know. The moment you accept what troubles you've been given the door with open.

Asleep or awake, writing or reading, whatever you do, you must never be without the remembrance of God.

Love possesses seven hundred wings, and each one extends from the highest heaven to the lowest earth.

What in your life is calling you, When all the noise is silenced, The meetings adjourned... The lists laid aside, And the Wild Iris blooms By itself In the dark forest... What still pulls on your soul?

When you have indulged a lust, your wing drops off; you become lame, abandoned by a fantasy. …People fancy they are enjoying themselves, but they are really tearing out their wings for the sake of an illusion.
