Words are Pure Magic quotes and poetry

The thought that you exist is so divinely blissful in itself that it is ridiculous to talk about the everyday sadness of separation – a week’s, ten days’ – what does it matter? since my whole life belongs to you.

“Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions destroyed.”

“One of the saddest lines in the world is, ‘Oh come now - be realistic.’ The best parts of this world were not fashioned by those who were realistic. They were fashioned by those who dared to look hard at their wishes and gave them horses to ride.”

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it’s a feather bed.”

My tears are like the quiet drift  Of petals from some magic rose;  And all my grief flows from the rift  Of unremembered skies and snows.   I think, that if I touched the earth,  It would crumble;  It is so sad and beautiful,  So tremulously like a dream. 

“We worship perfection because we can’t have it; if we had it, we would reject it. Perfection is inhuman, because humanity is imperfect.”

“I’ll tell every one in the world that you are the only one that matters.”

“When you hurt people, they begin to love you less. That’s what careless words do. They make people love you a little less.”
