A quote from Rumi

Conventional wisdom is death to our souls
and is not really ours.
We must become ignorant of what we have been taught
to become instead, bewildered.
Run from what's profitable and comfortable.
If you drink those liqueurs,
you'll spill the spring water that is your real life.
Forget safety.
Live where you fear to live.
Be notorious.
Destroy your reputation.
We've tried prudent planning long enough.
From now on, let's be mad.
-Rumi
