“We can't help being thirsty, moving toward the voice of water.”

“Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.”

“Keep walking, though there's no place to get to.Don't try to see through the distances.That's not for human beings. Move within,But don't move the way fear makes you move.”

“Nothing can help me but that beauty.There was a dawn I rememberwhen my soul heard something from your soul.I drank water from your springand felt the current take me.”

“There came one and knocked at the door of the Beloved.And a voice answered and said, 'Who is there?'The lover replied, 'It is I.''Go hence,' returned the voice;'there is no room within for thee and me.'Then came the lover a second time and knocked and again the voice demanded,'Who is there?'He answered, 'It is thou.''Enter,' said the voice, 'for I am within.”

“Be quiet now and wait.It may be that the ocean one,the one we desire so to move into and become,desires us out here on land a little longer,going our sundry roads to the shore.”

“Stars burn clearall night till dawn.Do that yourself, and a spring will rise in the dark with water your deepest thirst is for.”
