"What strange beings we are! That sitting..." - Quote by Rumi

“Do not feel lonely, the entire universe is inside you.”

“You were born with wings, why prefer to crawl through life?”

“Love so needs to love that it will endure almost anything, even abuse, just to flicker for a moment. But the sky's mouth is kind, its song will never hurt you, for I sing those words.”

“Books are immortal sons deifying their sires.”

“If I could write the beauty of your eyes And in fresh numbers number all your graces, The age to come would say, 'This poet lies; Such heavenly touches ne'er touch'd earthly faces.'”

“The mass of men worry themselves into nameless graves while here and there a great unselfish soul forgets himself into immortality.”

“I never dared to be radical when young for fear it would make me conservative when old.”

“An oppressive government is more to be feared than a tiger.”

“Mutual fear is a principal link in the chain of mutual love.”
