“You dance inside my chest,
where no one sees you,

but sometimes I do, and that
sight becomes this art.”
― Rumi

“Poetry can be dangerous, especially beautiful poetry, because it gives the illusion of having had the experience without actually going through it.”
― Jalâl ad-Dîn Rûmî, The Book of Love: Poems of Ecstasy and Longing

“William James said, ‘We don’t laugh because we are happy. We are happy because we laugh.”
― Robin S. Sharma, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari: A Remarkable Story About Living Your Dreams

“You have no idea how hard I've looked for a gift to bring You. Nothing seemed right. What's the point of bringing gold to the gold mine, or water to the ocean. Everything I came up with was like taking spices to the Orient. It's no good giving my heart and my soul because you already have these. So I've brought you a mirror. Look at yourself and remember me.”
― Rumi
