Quotes from Farid ud-Din Attar

I doubt my doubt, doubt itself is unsure I love, but who is it for whom I sigh? Not Muslim, yet not heathen; who am I?
~ Farid ud-Din Attar
Come you lost Atoms to your Centre draw, And be the Eternal Mirror that you saw
~ Farid ud-Din Attar
How arrogant you are To think your wretched Self so singular! The disappointments of this world will die In less time than the blinking of an eye, And as the earth must pass, pass by the earth Don't even glance at it, know what it's worth; What empty foolishness it is to care For what must one day be dispersed to air!
~ Farid ud-Din Attar
The world is a talisman with treasures in its depth.yet,the talisman will be removed,along with the body chains. as the talisman is gone,the life appears. then another talisman awaits your life;in the unseen your life is abody ,a new strife.
~ Farid ud-Din Attar
