My yearning is my cup, my burning thirst is my drink, and my solitude is my intoxication; I do not and shall not quench my thirst. But in this burning that is never extinguished is a joy that never wanes.
"The Vision: Reflections on the Way of the Soul". Book by Kahlil Gibran, translated by Juan R. I. Cole, 1994.
