More quotes by Hafez
What do sad people have in common? It seems they have all built a shrine to the past and often go there and do a strange wail and worship. What is the beginning of Happiness? It is to stop being so religious like that.
Hafez

Hafez
Love is simply creation's greatest joy.
Hafez
For a day, just for one day, talk about that which disturbs no one and bring some peace into those beautiful eyes.
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
In time of trouble avert not thy face from hope, for the soft marrow abideth in the hard bone.
Hafez
Dear Ones, Beware of the tiny gods frightened men Create To bring anesthetic relief to their sad days
Hafez

Hafez
'Tis writ on Paradise's gate, Woe to the dupe that yields to fate!

Hafez
What we speak becomes the house we live in.
Hafez
Grieve not though the journey of life be bitter, and the end unseen, there is no road which does not lead to an end.
Hafez
Come Dance with Me , come dance.
Hafez
I know you have a hundred complex cases against God in court, but never mind, let's just get out of this mess.
Hafez
Your heart and my heart are very, very old friends.
Hafez
Listen this world is the lunatic's sphere , Don't always agree it's real, Even with my feet upon it And the postman knowing my door My address is somewhere else.
Hafez
We have come into this exquisite world to experience ever and ever more deeply our divine courage, freedom and light!
Hafez
Remember for just one minute of the day, it would be best to try looking upon yourself more as God does, for She knows your true royal nature.
Hafez
