“If I can’t make it through one door, I’ll go through another door- or i’ll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present.”

The small wisdom is like water in a glass, clear, transparent, pure. The great wisdom is like the water in the sea: dark, mysterious, impenetrable.

Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.

Nirvana is not the blowing out of the candle. It is the extinguishing of the flame because day is come.

Come oh come ye tea-thirsty restless ones -the kettle boils, bubbles and sings, musically.

Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it.

Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.

By plucking her petals you do not gather the beauty of the flower.

The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.

I seem to have loved you in numberless forms, numberless times, In life after life, in age after age, forever.

Never be afraid of the moments–thus sings the voice of the everlasting.

Trees are the earth’s endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.

Love adorns itself; it seeks to prove inward by outward beauty.

Never be afraid of the moments-thus sings the voice of the everlasting.

Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.

Oh my only friend, my best beloved, the gates are open in my house – do not pass by like a dream.

Men are cruel, but Man is kind.

Even when shits dark. Your spirit is light.

I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.

She grew flowers in his heart where once lay darkness.

I love to chase my shadow to feel how it rests in the dark.

The sun cannot hide all the shadows of the clouds just as the moon cannot stop the sea tides, But a hidden star still smiling at the dark magic of the night.

The water in a vessel is sparkling; the water in the sea is dark. The small truth has words which are clear; the great truth has great silence.

I do not speak as I think, I do not think as I should, and so it all goes on in helpless darkness.

It’s darkness without you, or didn’t you know? That the sunshine goes with you, wherever you go.
