Your heart is full of fertile seeds, waiting to sprout. Just as a lotus flower springs from the mire to bloom splendidly, the interaction of the cosmic breath causes the flower of the spirit to bloom and bear fruit in this world. – Morihei Ueshiba
There is in every human heart Some not completely barren part, Where seeds of truth and love might grow, And flowers of generous virtue flow; To plant, to watch, to water there, This be our duty, be our care. – Sir John Bowring
I began to fear that Mos Def was being treated as a product, not a person, so Ive been going by Yasiin since 99. At first it was just for friends and family, but now Im declaring it openly. – Mos Def
