The cure for pain is in the pain.
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
Respond to every call that excites your spirit
Either give me more wine or leave me alone
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love
Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty
Never think you're better than anyone else, but don't let anyone treat you like you're worse than they are
I make it a rule never to smoke while I’m sleeping
There is nothing more tragic than to find an individual bogged down in the length of life, devoid of breadth
He who wishes to be obeyed must know how to command
It is in the character of very few men to honor without envy a friend who has prospered
