"I was a tiny bug. Now a..." - Quote by Rumi

“They are the privileged lovers who create a new world with their eyes of fiery passion.”

“That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.”

“When setting out on a journey do not seek advice from someone who never left home”

“Make the small big and the few many.”

“The traveler must be born again on the road, and earn a passport from the elements.”

“...These healers...my intellect has been unable to assimilate their theories....But their facts are patent and startling; and anything that interferes with the multiplication of such facts, and with our freest opportunity of observing and studying them, will, I believe, be a public calamity.”

“Forgivness is letting go of the hope that the past can be changed”
