More quotes by 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 heart is a thousand stringed instrument that can only be tuned with love.
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
The world is a bride of surpassing beauty-but remember that this maiden is never bound to anyone.
Hafez
People say that the soul, on hearing the song of creation, entered the body, but in reality the soul itself was the song.
Hafez
Love sometimes wants to do us a great favor: hold us upside down and shake all the nonsense out.
Hafez
There are different wells within your heart. Some fill with each good rain, Others are far too deep for that.
Hafez

Hafez

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
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
Stay close to anything that makes you glad you are alive.
Hafez
Grieve not because thou understand-not life's mystery behind the veil is concealed many a delight.
Hafez
In time of trouble avert not thy face from hope, for the soft marrow abideth in the hard bone.
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
When you can make others laugh with jokes that belittle no one and your words always unite, Hafiz will vote for you to be God.
Hafez
Not loving is a letting go. Listen, The terrain around here Is Far too Dangerous For That.
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
I should not make any promises right now, But I know if you Pray Somewhere in this world - Something good will happen.
Hafez
Think of suffering as being washed.
