“One of the marvels of the world: The sight of a soul sitting in prison with the key in its hand.”
“Are you searching for your soul? Then come out of your own prison.”
“Why, when God's world is so big, did you fall asleep in a prison, of all places?”
“Become the sky. Take an axe to the prison wall. Escape.”
“I cannot stop asking. If I could taste one sip of an answer, I could break out of this prison for drunks.”
“Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison When the door is so wide open?”
“Are you searching for the river of your soul? Then come out of your prison. Leave the stream and join the river that flows into the ocean.”
