Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment
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
The root of suffering is attachment
Don't let yesterday take up too much of today
The best deed of a great man is to forgive and forget
Imagination is more important than knowledge
The friendship that can cease has never been real
All good things are wild and free
