When something goes wrong, accuse yourself first. Even the wisdom of Plato or Solomon can wobble and go blind

This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away.

Love is such a vast sea, it has neither edges nor ends nor corners.

My heart is burning with love. All I can see is this flame. My heart is burning with passion, like waves on an ocean. I'm at home, wherever I am. And in the room of lovers, I can see with closed eyes the beauty that dances. Behind the veils, intoxicated with love, I too dance the rhythm of this moving world.

If you desire healing, let yourself fall ill let yourself fall ill.

Let yourself be drawn by the stronger pull of that which you truly love.

Come into my eyes, and look at me through them, for I have chosen a home far beyond what eyes can see.
