He had a better mind and a more rigorous temperament than me; he thought logically, and then acted on the conclusion of logical thought.

Mystics are not themselves. They do not exist in selves. They move as they are moved, talk as words come, see with sight that enters their eyes. I met a woman once and asked her where love had led her. Fool, there's no destination to arrive at. Loved one and lover and love are infinite.
