Two reeds
drink from one stream. One is hollow, the other is sugar-cane. -
Jalaludin Rumi
Guard
your heart from heedlessness, protect your lower self from desires, guard
your intellect from ignorance, and you will be admitted into the company
of the vigilant. It is a duty for everyone to seek knowledge; that is,
knowledge of yourself. - Jafar al-Sadiq
If
someone remarks, "What an excellent man you are!" and this
pleases you more than his saying, "What a bad man you are!" know
that you are still a bad man. - Sufyan al-Thawri
