Let the beauty of what you love be what you do
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
Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are
The nourishment of body is food, while the nourishment of the soul is feeding others.
If music be the food of love, play on
There are no limits to what you can achieve on your journey through life, except in your mind
I have talked with great men, and I do not see how they differ from others
There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it
