More quotes by Hafez
Now is the time to understand That all your ideas of right and wrong Were just a child's training wheelsTo be laid aside When you finally live With veracity And love.
Hafez
The great religions are the ships, Poets the life boats. Every sane person I know has jumped overboard.
Hafez
On the holy boughs of the Celestial Tree High up in the heavenly fields, Beyond terrestrial desire My soul-bird a warm nest has built.
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
Woe to the dupe that yields to Fate!
Hafez
I should not make any promises right now, But I know if you Pray Somewhere in this world - Something good will happen.
Hafez
I rarely let the word NO escape from my mouth, because it is so plain to my soul that God has shouted, Yes! Yes! Yes! To every luminous movement in existence.
Hafez
Thou learnest no secret until thou knowest friendship, since to the unsound no heavenly knowledge enters.
Hafez
For a day, just for one day, talk about that which disturbs no one and bring some peace into those beautiful eyes.
Hafez
Dear Ones, Beware of the tiny gods frightened men Create To bring anesthetic relief to their sad days
Hafez
Love sometimes wants to do us a great favor: hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.
Hafez
For I have learned that every heart will get What it prays for Most.
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
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
All your wounds from craving love Exist because of heroic deeds.
Hafez
The world is a bride of surpassing beauty-but remember that this maiden is never bound to anyone.
Hafez
'Tis writ on Paradise's gate, Woe to the dupe that yields to fate!
Hafez
How did the rose ever open its heart and give to this world all of its beauty? It felt the encouragement of Light against its being otherwise we all remain too frightened.
Hafez
The earth has disappeared beneath my feet, It fled from all my ecstasy. Now like a singing air creature I feel the rose keep opening.
Hafez
In time of trouble avert not thy face from hope, for the soft marrow abideth in the hard bone.
Hafez
