Listen; this world is the lunatic’s sphere, Don’t always agree it’s real, Even with my feet upon it And the postman knowing my door My address is somewhere else.
What do sad people have in common? It seems they have all built a shrine to the past and often go there and do a strange wail and worship. What is the beginning of Happiness? It is to stop being so religious like that.
Carry your heart through this world like a life-giving sun.
You yourself are your own obstacle, rise above yourself.
Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, ‘you owe me.’ Look what happens with a love like that! It lights up the whole sky.
The small man builds cages for everyone he knows While the sage, who has to duck his head when the moon is low, Keeps dropping keys all night long For the beautiful rowdy prisoners.
I Have Learned so much from God That I can no longer call myself A Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim, A Buddhist, a Jew.
How did the rose ever open its heart and give to this world all of its beauty? It felt the encouragement of Light against its being; otherwise we all remain too frightened.
An awake heart is like a sky that pours light.
When all your desires are distilled; You will cast just two votes: To love more, And be happy.
For a day, just for one day, talk about that which disturbs no one and bring some peace into those beautiful eyes.
For I have learned that every heart will get what it prays for most.
Your heart and my heart are very, very old friends.
Now is the time to know that all that you do is sacred.
People say that the soul, on hearing the song of creation, entered the body, but in reality the soul itself was the song.
Happiness is right in front of you.
Time is a factory where everyone slaves away earning enough love to break their own chains.
Run my dear, from anything that may not strengthen your precious budding wings. Run like hell my dear, from anyone likely to put a sharp knife into the sacred, tender vision of your beautiful heart.
Love sometimes wants to do us a great favor: hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.
Laugh because that is the purest sound.
