"This dance is the joy of existence...." - Quote by Rumi

“Lovers have heartachesThat can't be cured by drugsOr sleep,Or games,But only by seeing their beloved.”

“There are many languages in the world; in meaning all are the same. If you break the cups, water will be unified and will flow together.”

“Smiles come best from those who weep.”

“People have stars, but they aren't the same. For travelers, the stars are guides. For other people, they're nothing but tiny lights. And for still others, for scholars, they're problems... But all those stars are silent stars. You, though, you'll have stars like nobody else... since I'll be laughing on one of them, for you it'll be as if all the stars are laughing. You'll have stars that can laugh!... and it'll be as if I had given you, instead of stars, a lot of tiny bells that know how to laugh.”

“Hold puppies, kittens, and babies anytime you get the chance.”

“Every day has its great grief or its small anxiety. ... One cloud is dispelled, another forms. There is hardly one day in a hundred of real joy and bright sunshine.”

“I was born at a very early age. Before I had time to regret it, I was four and a half years old.”

“I am not a positivist. Positivism states that what cannot be observed does not exist. This conception is scientifically indefensible, for it is impossible to make valid affirmations of what people 'can' or 'cannot' observe. One would have to say 'only what we observe exists,' which is obviously false.”

“Term, holidays, term, holidays, till we leave school, and then work, work, work till we die.”
