Either give me more wine or leave me alone
Persian poet, jurist, Islamic scholar, theologian, and Sufi mystic originally from Greater Khorasan.
I want to sing like the birds sing, not worrying about who hears or what they think
The art of knowing is knowing what to ignore
I closed my mouth and spoke to you in a hundred silent ways
The cure for pain is in the pain.
Respond to every call that excites your spirit
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love
I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book
Do you wish to be the master of a good servant, with whom you will be satisfied? If so, you must perform service for yourself.
A wrong concept misleads the understanding; a wrong deed degrades the whole man, and may eventually demolish the structure of the human ego
Silence is the best cure for the malady of anger
If you want to control other people, first control yourself
He who wishes to be obeyed must know how to command
