More quotes by 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
There is no pleasure without a tincture of bitterness.
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
The only friends who are free from cares are the goblet of wine and a book. Give me wine...that I may for a time forget the cares of the world.
Hafez
Woe to the dupe that yields to Fate!

Hafez
The tide of my love Has risen so high let me flood over You.
Hafez
Speak but little, and that little only when thy own purposes require it. Heaven has given thee two ears but only one tongue, which means: listen to two things, but be not the first to propose one.
Hafez
Come in, my dearFrom that harsh worldThat has rained elements of stoneUpon your tender face.Every soulShould receive a toast from usFor bravery!
Hafez
You yourself are your own obstacle, rise above yourself.
Hafez
How seamless seemed love and then came trouble!
Hafez
Your life within God's arms, Your dance within God's arms, Is already Perfect!
Hafez
