“Sometimes I don't understand how another can love her, is allowed to love her, since I love her so completely myself, so intensely, so fully, grasp nothing, know nothing, have nothing but her!”
― The Sorrows of Young Werther

“To say ‘I love you’ one must first know how to say the ‘I.’ The meaning of the ‘I’ is an independent, self-sufficient entity that does not exist for the sake of any other person. A person who exists only for the sake of his loved one is not an independent entity, but a spiritual parasite. The love of a parasite is worth nothing.”

“TROUBLED Troubled?
Then stay with me, for I’m not. Lonely?
A thousand naked amorous ones dwell in ancient caves
Beneath my eyelids. Riches?
Here’s a pick,
My whole body is an emerald that begs,
“Take me.” Write all that worries you on a piece of parchment;
Offer it to God.
Even from the distance of a millennium I can lean the flame in my heart
Into your life And turn
All that frightens you
Into holy
Incense
Ash.”
― The Gift: Poems Inspired by Hafiz, the Great Sufi Master
