"And still, after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, ‘You owe me.’ Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky."

- Hafez

"I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being."

- Hafez

"Admit something: Everyone you see, you say to them, 'Love me.' Of course, you do not do this out loud, otherwise someone would call the cops. Still, though, think about this, this great pull in us to connect. Why not become the one who lives with a full moon in each eye that is always saying, with that sweet moon vision, 'Love me."

- Hafez
