When you can make others laugh with jokes that belittle no one and your words always unite, Hafiz will vote for you to be God.

Your love Should never be offered to the mouth of a Stranger, Only to someone Who has the valor and daring To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife Then weave them into a blanket To protect you.

Stay close to anything that makes you glad you are alive.

I once asked a bird, how is it that you fly in this gravity of darkness? She responded, 'love lifts me.'

I wish I could show you...the astonishing light of your own being.

Fear is the cheapest room in the house. I would like to see you living in better conditions.

I am in love with every church And mosque And temple And any kind of shrine Because I know it is there That people say the different names Of the One God.

Your heart and my heart are very, very old friends.

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

This place where you are right now, God circled on a map for you.

You yourself are your own obstacle, rise above yourself.

Childbirth is more admirable than conquest, more amazing than self-defense, and as courageous as either one.

Humour is...the all-consoling and...the all-excusing, grace of life.

Worship is an act of obedience of the heart. It is a response that requires the very core of who you are, to love the Lord for who He is, not just for what He does.

I'd rather get a nice warmup suit. That's something I can use. Gold medals just sit there. When I get old, maybe I could sell them if I need the money.

Those who stand in the way of virtue shall fail!

It's hard to put my music in a specific genre, but if you had to, "instrumental cyber metal" would be an accurate one.

I have tons of regrets, but I think that's one of the reasons that push people to create things. Out of their angst, their regret, comes the best from artists, painters and writers.

Happiness, not in another place but this place...not for another hour, but this hour.
