"There is a window from one heart..." - Quote by Rumi

“The source of now is here.”

“When you are everywhere, you are nowhere. When you are somewhere, you are everywhere.”

“Late, by myself, in the boat of myself, no light and no land anywhere, cloudcover thick. I try to stay just above the surface, yet I'm already under and living within the ocean.”

“Proximity bred familiarity, and familiarity bred comfort.”

“In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.”

“Drawing is a kind of hypnotism: one looks in such a way at the model, that he comes and takes a seat on the paper.”

“nothing is more important than empathy for another human being's suffering. Nothing. Not a career, not wealth, not intelligence, certainly not status. We have to feel for one another if we're going to survive with dignity.”

“One evening at Chequers the film was Oliver Twist. Rufus, as usual, had the best seat in the house, on his master's lap. At the point when Bill Sikes was about to drown his dog to put the police off his track, Churchill covered Rufus's eyes with his hand. He said, "Don't look now, dear. I'll tell you about it afterwards."”

“I love hugging people. I still hug everybody in my meet-and-greet lines.”
