The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart.

There is a time for departure even when there's no certain place to go.

Tennessee Williams

“Always you have to contend with the stupidity of men.”

Giving up doesn't always mean you are weak; sometimes it means that you are strong enough to let go.

Temple of Love

The temple of love is not love itself;True love is the treasure,Not the walls about it.Do not admire the decoration,But involve yourself in the essence,The perfume that invades and touches you-The beginning and the end.Discovered, this replace all else,The apparent and the unknowable.Time and space are slaves to this presence.

Rumi

Mountain Seclusion
I won't even stop

at the valley's brook

for fear that my shadow

may flow into the world.

Dogen

“We really have to understand the person we want to love. If our love is only a will to possess, it is not love. If we only think of ourselves, if we know only our own needs and ignore the needs of the other person, we cannot love.”

Thich Nhat Hanh

“When you have come to the edge Of all light that you know And are about to drop off into the darkness Of the unknown, Faith is knowing One of two things will happen: There will be something solid to stand on or You will be taught to fly”

“If we're not supposed to eat animals, how come they're made out of meat?”
