“In my experience an insane person (and I have met a few) is someone who believes that the entire universe and everything in it is conspiring against him. The sane person, on the other hand, is the one who believes that the entire universe and everything in it is conspiring for him. I, fortunately, am a denizen of the latter category. (p. 283)”

“Kada bi borcu postao pancir težak pa ga odstranio, i sablja teška pa je bacio, i hrana i piće teški pa ih negdje ostavio, potom sretne neprijatelja bez oružja, pancira, gladan i žedan kako mu se može suprostaviti?! Isti je slučaj s vjernikom kome zikr postane težak pa ga napusti, i dova teška pa je ostavi, i dobrovoljni namazi postanu teški pa ih ostavi, i propisanani namazi pa ih ne klanja u propisano vrijeme, i naredbe i zabrane teški pa ih se ne pridržava, potom se žali kako ga je šejtan porazio?! Ne, vec je on samog sebe izdao i porazio! Svevišnji Allah kaže: "I sami sebe u propast ne dovodite" El-Bekara, 195.”

“With his iman, he will split open and sift everything he sees. He will pierce through it with his wisdom and his firm certitude and determination, without allowing his mind to become fatigued, without allowing his heart to give up. If he can continue to pierce and cut through what is within everything, he will see only Allah. He will see Allah‘s wealth, Allah‘s powers, Allah‘s qualities, and nothing else. In every moment, in every tree, in every flower, and in every blade of grass, he will see only God. In every tree, every fruit, every fragrance, every flower, every bird, every cow, every goat, in whatever he beholds he will see only the secret of Allah, the powers or wilayats of Allah, and the qualities of Allah. When he looks at an ant he will discover Allah‘s secrets. When he looks at a fruit he will be amazed and say, „What a wonder! How praiseworthy You are. How subtly You have created the fruit. What flavors it contains!“ If he looks at a honeybee he will see how much wisdom it has, how it builds its house, what qualities it has, and how it tastes the honey and shares it with everyone. (p. 4)”
