Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only appears in the roots.”
Rumi

Oscar Wilde
“The very essence of romance is uncertainty.”
Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest and Other Plays

Gary Provost
“This sentence has five words. Here are five more words. Five-word sentences are fine. But several together become monotonous. Listen to what is happening. The writing is getting boring. The sound of it drones. It’s like a stuck record. The ear demands some variety. Now listen. I vary the sentence length, and I create music. Music. The writing sings. It has a pleasant rhythm, a lilt, a harmony. I use short sentences. And I use sentences of medium length. And sometimes, when I am certain the reader is rested, I will engage him with a sentence of considerable length, a sentence that burns with energy and builds with all the impetus of a crescendo, the roll of the drums, the crash of the cymbals–sounds that say listen to this, it is important.”
Gary Provost

Mahatma Gandhi
“There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.”
Mahatma Gandhi

Oscar Wilde
“A man's face is his autobiography. A woman's face is her work of fiction.”
Oscar Wilde
