That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.
If people misunderstand you, do not worry…it is your voice that they hear, but what goes through their mind is…their own thoughts.
Raise your words, not your voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.
Beauty surrounds us, but usually we need to be walking in a garden to know it.
Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.
If you want the moon, do not hide from the night. If you want a rose, do not hide from the thorns. If you want love, do not hide from yourself.
Be a lamp, a lifeboat, a ladder. Help someone’s soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.
Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.
Doing as others told me, I was blind. Coming when others called me, I was lost. Then I left everyone, myself as well. Then I found myself, myself as well.
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I’ll meet you there.
The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.
The wound is the place where the light enters you.
Why should I be unhappy? Every parcel of my being is in full bloom.
The pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.
At the end of my life, with just one breath left, if you come, I’ll sit up and sing.
Be like a tree and let the dead leaves drop.
Although the road is never ending, take a step and keep walking, do not look fearfully into the distance…on the path let the heart be your guide for the body is hesitant and full of fear.
The quieter you become, you more you are able to hear.
Woman is a ray of God. She is not that earthly beloved: she is creative, not created.
Everything that is made beautiful and fair and lovely is made for the eye of one who sees.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
