Kill the cow of your ego as quickly as you can, so that your inner spirit can come to life and attain true awareness.

Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives.

You’re a song, a wished-for song.

You are the fountain of the sun. I'm the shadow of a willow. You fall upon my forehead. I melt. You slip into my heart. It spills open. You surround me with such sweetness. I make it my home.

Whatever happens, just keep smiling and lose yourself in Love.

Everyone is so afraid of death, but the real sufis just laugh: nothing tyrannizes their hearts. What strikes the oyster shell does not damage the pearl

You must lance an ulcer to heal it. You must tear down parts of an old building to restore it, and so it is with a sensual life that has no spirit in it.
