Rumi 07: “Not-being and defect, wherever seen,

6 linesPersia / AnatoliaSource: Project Gutenberg

“Not-being and defect, wherever seen,

Are mirrors of the beauty of all that is.

The bone-setter, where should he try his skill

But on the patient lying with broken leg?

Were no base copper in the crucible,

How could the alchemist his craft display?”
