If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?
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
Either give me more wine or leave me alone
Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back
You may delay, but time will not
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself
You can often change your circumstances by changing your attitude
The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.
All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone
