The Forty Rules of Love

“But it wasn’t enough. Whatever I did, I could not rid my mind of the thought that he didn’t love me. I had no doubt that he liked me and meant me well. But this wasn’t anything even close to love. So harrowing was this thought that it was eating me up inside, gnawing at my body and soul.”

“It is the first rule, brother,” I said. “How we see God is a direct reflection of how we see ourselves. If God brings to mind mostly fear and blame, it means there is too much fear and blame welled inside us. If we see God as full of love and compassion, so are we.”

“„Търпението не означава да стискаш зъби и да не правиш нищо. То означава да си достатъчно прозорлив, за да се довериш на крайния резултат от процеса. Какво означава търпението! То означава да гледаш бодлите и да виждаш розата, да гледаш нощта и да виждаш зората. Нетърпението означава да си толкова късоглед, че да не виждаш резултата. Който обича Бога, остава търпелив, понеже знае, че се иска време непълната луна да стане пълна.”

“Готвачът беше немногословен човек и си повтаряше все едно: — Да чистиш, е като да се молиш, да се молиш, е като да чистиш! — Ако това беше вярно, всички домакини в Багдад щяха да са се превърнали в духовни учители досега — осмелих се веднъж да възразя аз.”

“The emperor did not hide his disappointment. “Are you the one Majnun has been crazy about? Why, you look so ordinary. What is so special about you?” Layla broke into a smile. “Yes, I am Layla. But you are not Majnun,” she answered. “You have to see me with the eyes of Majnun. Otherwise you could never solve this mystery called love.”

“There were more important things than passion and love in a marriage, such as understanding, affection, compassion, and that most godlike act a person could perform forgiveness. Love was secondary to any of these. Unless, that is, one lived in novels or romantic movies, where the protagonists were always larger than life and their love nothing short of a legend.”
