The Lover Quotes

“But as sure as God is the Withholder”
― Laury Silvers, The Lover

“Uncle Abu al-Qasim taught them all to hide their mystical states. They should speak so that outsiders would not understand. They should control themselves even when it was just them, especially during their remembrance ceremonies, the sama, when the music and poetry mystically transported them into the arms of the divine Beloved. But Uncle Nuri called for the seekers to speak the truth, whatever the consequences.”
― Laury Silvers, The Lover
