Habeeb Akande
“Excuses are merely nails used to build a house of failure.”
Habeeb Akande

“Your lost Joseph will return to Canaan, do not grieve.
This house of sorrows will become a garden, do not grieve.”
Hafiz

Shams Tabrizi
“A life without love is of no account. Don't ask yourself what kind of love you should seek, spiritual or material, divine or mundane, eastern or western…divisions only lead to more divisions. Love has no labels, no definitions. It is what it is, pure and simple. Love is the water of life. And a lover is a soul of fire! The universe turns differently when fire loves water.”
Shams Of Tabriz

Victor Hugo
“There comes an hour when protest no longer suffices; after philosophy there must be action; the strong hand finishes what the idea has sketched.”
Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

“Your love should never be offered to the mouth of a Stranger / Only to someone who has the valor and daring to cut pieces of their soul off with a knife / Then weave them into a blanket to protect you.”
Hafiz
