"What is the purpose of desire? What is a dream? A song? Do we know the depth of silence in another person? What is the heart? What is it to be a true human being? How do we balance surrender and discipline? Some people call the Sufi poets "mystics." I say they're on the path to the heart. The area of experience they refer to is not empirically verifiable - that is, a camera can't photograph it, a scale can't weigh it nor can words do much to describe it. It is not exclusively physical, emotional, or mental. Like the depths of our loving, it can not neither proven nor denied."
