It is pointless trying to know where the way leads. Think only about your first step, the rest will come.
Shams TabriziIf parts are always changing, the whole remains the same. A dead good man is replaced by a good man, a dead bad man is replaced by a bad man. While the whole remains the same, every day is different.
Shams TabriziIf you are insulted, if you are accused, if they gossip about you, don't say anything bad. Don't be the one who sees the shame, be the one who corrects it.
Shams TabriziThe chemistry of mind is different from the chemistry of love. The mind is careful, suspicious, he advances little by little. He advises โBe careful, protect yourselfโ Whereas love says โLet yourself, go!โ The mind is strong, never falls down, while love hurts itself, falls into ruins. But isnโt it in ruins that we mostly find the treasures? A broken heart hides so many treasures.
