"The best sea: has yet to be crossed ...."

"The best sea: has yet to be crossed;
The best child: has yet to be born;
The best days: have yet to be lived;
and the best word that I wanted to say to you,
is the word I have not yet said."

"They say - what say they - let them say."

"They say - what say they - let them say."

"Hurt no living thing ...."

CAN I?

"Hurt no living thing;
Ladybird, nor butterfly,
Nor moth with dusty wing,
Nor cricket chirping cheerily,
Nor grasshopper so light of leap,
Nor dancing gnat, nor beetle fat,
Nor harmless worms that creep."  

"I don't want to be near you ...."

“I don’t want to be near you

for the thoughts we share

but the words we never have

to speak”

 

"I have a garden of my own ...."

“I have a garden of my own,
Shining with flowers of every hue;
I loved it dearly while alone,
But! I shall love it more with you." 

Thomas Moore

"Forget safety ...."

"Forget safety.

Live where you fear to live.

Destroy your reputation.

Be notorious."

Rumi

"Yesterday I was clever ...."

"Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world.  Today I am wise, so I am changing myself."

Rumi
