More quotes by Hafez

Hafez
The beauty of You delights me. The sight of You amazes me. For the Pearl does this... and the Ocean does that.
Hafez
The world is a bride of surpassing beauty-but remember that this maiden is never bound to anyone.
Hafez
Start seeing everything as God, But keep it a secret
Hafez
If at last thou attain the desire of thy life, Cast the world aside, yea, abandon it!
Hafez
How seamless seemed love and then came trouble!
Hafez

Hafez
The small man builds cages for everyone he knows While the sage, who has to duck his head when the moon is low, Keeps dropping keys all night long For the beautiful rowdy prisoners.
Hafez
Pulling out the chair beneath your mind And watching you fall upon God What else is there for Hafiz to do that is any fun in this world!
Hafez
Fear is the cheapest room in the house.
Hafez
We don't need sugar, flour or rice or anything else. We just want to see our dear ones.
