“It is written on the gate of heaven: Nothing in existence is more powerful than destiny. And destiny brought you here, to this page, which is part of your ticket-as all things are-to return to God.”

Think of suffering as being washed.

The sun will stand as your best man And whistle When you have found the courage To marry forgiveness When you have found the courage to marry Love.

I am happy even before I have a reason.

Love is simply creation’s greatest joy.

Sing because this is a food our starving world needs. Laugh because that is the purest sound.

The great religions are the ships, Poets the life boats. Every sane person I know has jumped overboard.

All your wounds from craving love Exist because of heroic deeds.

Only a Perfect One who is always laughing at the word two can make you know of Love.

Everyone, whether he is self-denying or self-indulgent, is seeking after the Beloved. Every place may be the shrine of love, whether it be mosque or synagogue.

Now is the time to understand That all your ideas of right and wrong Were just a child’s training wheels to be laid aside When you finally live With veracity And love.

When all your desires are distilled; You will cast just two votes: To love more, And be happy.

Be kind to your sleeping heart. Take it out into the vast fields of light…And let it breathe.

You have actually waltzed with tremendous style, my sweet, O my sweet, crushed angel.

The Earth would die If the sun stopped kissing her.

Be content with what thou hast received, and smooth thy frowning forehead, for the door of choice is not open either to thee or me.

The world is a bride of surpassing beauty-but remember that this maiden is never bound to anyone.

Attitude creates your world and designs your destiny.

Alas! we are the sport of destiny.

Life is soul’s nursery- its training place for the destinies of eternity.

It is an awful thing to get a glimpse, as one sometimes does, when the time is past, of some little, little wheel which works the whole mighty machinery of fate, and see how our destinies turn on a minute’s delay or advance.

What do I know of man’s destiny? I could tell you more about radishes.

Compete with your destiny, not theirs.

None of us got where we are solely by pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps.

Whatever happens, happens for the better. I was meant to do ‘Raabta.’ Every film has its destiny, and it’s the film that chooses you.
