-Sell your cleverness and purchase bewilderment.

-Soul receives from soul that knowledge, therefore not by book nor from tongue. If knowledge of mysteries come after emptiness of mind, that is illumination of heart.

-The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart.

-Come out of the circle of time, and into the circle of love.

-Knock, and He'll open the door. Vanish, and He'll make you shine like the sun. Fall, and He'll raise you to the heavens. Become nothing, and He'll turn you into everything.
