Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“A servant wants to be rewarded for what he does. A lover wants only to be in love's presence, that ocean whose depth will never be known.”
Jalâl ad-Dîn Rûmî, The Book of Love: Poems of Ecstasy and Longing

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Moonlight floods the whole sky from horizon to horizon;
How much it can fill your room depends on its windows.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Robert M. Pirsig
“The Buddha, the Godhead, resides quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer or the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of the mountain, or in the petals of a flower. To think otherwise is to demean the Buddha - which is to demean oneself.”
Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy, absentminded. Someone sober will worry about things going badly. Let the lover be. ”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“When you go through a hard period,
When everything seems to oppose you,
... When you feel you cannot even bear one more minute,
NEVER GIVE UP!
Because it is the time and place that the course will divert!”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi
