God turns you from one feeling to another and teaches by means of opposites, so that you will have two wings to fly, not one.
Mevlana Rumi (1207 - 1273)

Travelers, it is late. Life's sun is going to set. During these brief days that you have strength, be quick and spare no effort of your wings.
On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion.
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Everyone is so afraid of death, but the real sufis just laugh: nothing tyrannizes their hearts. What strikes the oyster shell does not damage the pearl.
Conventional opinion is the ruin of our souls.
That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.
Don't let your throat tighten with fear. Take sips of breath all day and night, before death closes your mouth.
Looking up gives light, although at first it makes you dizzy.
He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, 'Live!'
