“The Water said to the dirty one, “Come here.†The dirty one said, “I am too ashamed.†The water replied, “How will your shame be washed away without me?”
“You think you are alive because you breathe air? Shame on you, that you are alive in such a limited way. Don't be without Love, so you won't feel dead. Die in Love and stay alive forever.”
