More quotes by 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
We have come into this exquisite world to experience ever and ever more deeply our divine courage, freedom and light!
Hafez
Your love Should never be offered to the mouth of a Stranger, Only to someone Who has the valor and daring To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife Then weave them into a blanket To protect you.
Hafez
Carry your heart through this world like a life-giving sun
Hafez
Grieve not because thou understand-not life's mystery behind the veil is concealed many a delight.
Hafez
Thou learnest no secret until thou knowest friendship, since to the unsound no heavenly knowledge enters.
Hafez
There are different wells within your heart. Some fill with each good rain, Others are far too deep for that.
Hafez
Now that all your worry has proved such an unlucrative business. Why not find a better job.
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
Your life within God's arms, Your dance within God's arms, Is already Perfect!
Hafez
How seamless seemed love and then came trouble!
Hafez
Woe to the dupe that yields to Fate!
Hafez
A poet is someone Who can pour Light into a spoon, Then raise it To nourish Your beautiful parched, holy mouth.
Hafez
Not loving is a letting go. Listen, The terrain around here Is Far too Dangerous For That.
Hafez
Your heart and my heart are very, very old friends.
Hafez
All your wounds from craving love Exist because of heroic deeds.
Hafez
I do not feel like writing verses but as I light my perfume burner with myrrh and jasmine incense, they suddenly burgeon from my heart, like flowers in a garden.
Hafez
What is this precious love and laughter budding in our hearts? It is the glorious sound of a soul waking up!
Hafez
Fear is the cheapest room in the house.
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
