"When the wind of love blows, even the dust rises into the world of meaning."

"The pious man, with his rosary and prayer rug, is often more distant from God than the lover in the tavern."

"The wine is the blood of the grape, and the beloved is the soul of the world."

"Better to be a drunkard and a lover than a pious hypocrite."

"If you want to know God, look into the eyes of a lover."
