"How should Spring bring forth a garden..." - Quote by Rumi

“The intellectual is always showing off,the lover is always getting lost.The intellectual runs away.afraid of drowning;the whole business of loveis to drown in the sea.Intellectuals plan their repose;lovers are ashamed to rest.The lover is always alone.even surrounded by people;like water and oil, he remains apart.The man who goes to the troubleof giving advice to a loverget nothing. He's mocked by passion.Love is like musk. It attracts attention.Love is a tree, and the lovers are its shade.”

“This silence, this moment, every moment, If it's genuinely inside you, brings what you need.”

“The ground's generosity takes in our compost and grows beauty! Try to be more like the ground.”

“I think writing, my writing, is a species of mediumship. I become the person.”

“Only when you've truly had enough suffering in your life, are you able to say ' I don't need it anymore'.”

“Such a strong thing LOVE, changes everything.”

“America does not presume to know what is best for everyone”

“At home I am a nice guy: but I don't want the world to know. Humble people, I've found, don't get very far.”

“The surest way to be deceived is to consider oneself cleverer than others.”
