Rumi
You do not see clearly the evil in yourself, else you would hate yourself with all your soul. Like the lion who sprang at his image in the water, you are only hurting yourself, O foolish man. When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
I grow silent. Dear soul, you speak.

For the water animals, the ocean is like a garden for the land animals, it is death and pain.
Rumi
