Rumi

When I die, I shall soar with angels, and when I die to the angels, what I shall become you cannot imagine.

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

Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom.

To increase aid to the Pakistan government when religious freedom is not upheld is tantamount to an anti-Christian foreign policy.

Before I die, I will preach to the Muslims in the Arab world. I will preach in Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Iran. I will preach in Tehran. I will do it under the umbrella of God. And see its impact.

I'm not a very religious man, but I'm proud to be a Jew.
