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.

More quotes by Hafez
For I have learned that every heart will get What it prays for Most.
Hafez
Your separation from God is the hardest work you will ever do.
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
Grieve not because thou understand-not life's mystery behind the veil is concealed many a delight.
Hafez
Think of suffering as being washed.
Hafez
Fear is the cheapest room in the house.
Hafez
One regret dear world, that I am determined not to have when I am lying on my deathbed is that I did not kiss you enough.
Hafez
Do not surrender your grief so quickly Let it cut more deeply Let it ferment and season you As few human or divine ingredients can Something is missing in my heart tonight That has made my eyes so soft And my voice so tender And my need of God so absolutely clear.
Hafez
I am a hole in a flute that the Christ's breath moves through. Listen to this music.
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
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
In time of trouble avert not thy face from hope, for the soft marrow abideth in the hard bone.
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
Everyone, whether he is self-denying or self-indulgent, is seeking after the Beloved. Every place may be the shrine of love, whether it be mosque or synagogue.
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
It is not easy to stop thinking ill of others.Usually one must enter into a friendship with a person who has accomplished that great feat himself.Then something might start to rub off on you of that true elegance.
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
The beauty of You delights me. The sight of You amazes me. For the Pearl does this... and the Ocean does that.
Hafez
Start seeing everything as God, But keep it a secret
Hafez
