“To build children you must first be built yourself. Otherwise, you’ll seek children out of animal needs, or loneliness, or to patch the holes in yourself. Your task as a parent is to produce not another self, another Josef, but something higher. It’s to produce a creator.”
― Irvin D. Yalom, When Nietzsche Wept: A Novel Of Obsession

“The flower replied: You fool! Do you imagine I blossom in order to be seen? I blossom for my own sake because it pleases me, and not for the sake of others. My joy consists in my being and my blossoming.”

“As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul…”

Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.

Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.”
― Rumi
