doing at 20, wasn't doing much at 20.
- Meditation is in truth higher than thought. The earth seems
to rest in silent meditation; and the waters and the
mountains and the sky and the heavens seem all to be in
meditation. Whenever a man attains greatness on this earth,
he has his reward according to his meditation.
- I would rather entertain and hope that people learned something
than educate people and hope they were entertained.
- If you don't have solid beliefs you cannot build a stable life.

the choice for the next generation too.

With angels shared, by Allah given
To lift from earth our low desire.

Amid these earthly damps
What seem to us but sad, funeral tapers
May be heaven's distant lamps.
