“The stars glitterand the eyes of men are closed.Kings have locked their doorsand each lover is alone with his love.Here, I am alone with you.”

“I carry a torch in one handAnd a bucket of water in the other:With these things I am going to set fire to HeavenAnd put out the flames of HellSo that voyagers to God can rip the veilsAnd see the real goal.”

“O Allah! If I worship You for fear of Hell, burn me in Hell, and if I worship You in hope of Paradise, exclude me from Paradise. But if I worship You for Your Own sake, grudge me not Your everlasting Beauty.--Ya Allah, jika aku menyembahMu karena takut neraka, bakarlah aku di dalamnya, dan jika aku menyembahMu karena mengharap surga, campakkanlah aku darinya. Tetapi, jika aku menyembahMu demi Engkau semata, Janganlah Engkau enggan memperlihatkan keindahan wajahMu Yang abadi padaku.”

“I am not alone the truth isI befriended my loneliness”

“You can get more with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.”

“You can get much farther with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.”

“You can get much further with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.”
