“When a true lover of God goes into a tavern, the tavern becomes his chamber of prayer, but when a wine bibber goes into the same chamber, it becomes his tavern. In everything we do, it is our hearts that make the difference, not our outer appearance. Sufis do not judge other people on how they look or who they are. When a Sufi stares at someone, he keeps both eyes closed instead opens a third eye – the eye that sees the inner realm.”
― Elif Shafak , The Forty Rules of Love

“We don’t need a valid reason to fight, we find any reason and make it valid... two men arguing over a stone because it looks pretty can be equally justified as a reason to fight... as fighting over an oil well.”
― Sahibzada Hasn Muhammad, New Pravus
