The Madrassa of Abdul-Haqq Bahktiari -- [Entrance ] [Courtyard ] [Library ] [Study ]

The intellectual is always showing off;
the lover is always getting lost.
The intellectual runs away, afraid of drowning;
the whole business of love is to drown in the sea.
Intellectuals plan their repose;
lovers are ashamed to rest.
The lover is always alone,
even surrounded with people;
like water and oil, he remains apart.
The man who goes to the trouble
of giving advice to a lover
gets nothing.  He's mocked by passion.
Love is like musk.  It attracts attention.
Love is a tree, and lovers are its shade.
