O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now, Be all – worlds dissolve into your stainless endless radiance, Frail living leaves burn with your brighter than cold stares – Make me your servant, your breath, your core.

There are thousands of wines that can take over our minds. Don't think all ecstasies are the same!

From cane reeds, sugar. From a worm's cocoon, silk. Be patient if you can, and from sour grapes will come something sweet.

The core of the seen and unseen universe smiles, but remember smiles come best from those who weep. Lightning, then the rain-laughter.

This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.

Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.

My beloved grows right out of my own heart. How much more union can there be.
