The Intellectual and the Lover~ The intellectual is always - TopicsExpress



          

The Intellectual and the Lover~ The intellectual is always showing off; The lover is always losing the self. The intellectual runs away, afraid of the water; Love is all about drowning in the ocean. Intellectuals devise ways to repose; Lovers find no comfort in rest. The lover is always alone, even when with others: like oil floating on water, the two do not mix. The one who seeks to advise a lover gains nothing. They are passions fool. Love, like musk, is reputed for its scent. Can musk escape its reputation? Love is like a tree, and lovers are its shade; the shade spreads far, but can never quit the tree. To be an intellectual, a child must grow old, whereas love gives old people back their youth. ~Rumi~
