Land of the rising sun

Woman is a ray of God. She is not that earthly beloved: she is creative, not created.

A man is insensible to the relish of prosperity &#39;til he has tasted adversity.

That which God said to the rose, and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty, He said to my heart, and made it a hundred times more beautiful.

May these vows and this marriage be blessed.

Sunlight fell upon the wall; the wall received a borrowed splendor. Why set your heart on a piece of earth, O simple one? Seek out the source which shines forever.

There is an invisible strength within us; when it recognizes two opposing objects of desire, it grows stronger.

The garden of love is green without limit and yields many fruits other than sorrow or joy. Love is beyond either condition: without spring, without autumn, it is always fresh.

Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.

Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.
