If any ambitious man have a fancy to revolutionize, at one effort, the universal world of human thought, human opinion, and human sentiment, the opportunity is his own — the road to immortal renown lies straight, open, and unencumbered before him. All that he has to do is to write and publish a very little book. Its title should be simple — a few plain words — My Heart Laid Bare. But — this little book must be true to its title.

—Edgar Allan Poe

The heart is like a sparrow, turning about every hour.


The heart in its constant changes is like a pot when it reaches boiling.


The heart is like a feather in an empty land, which the winds blow along over and over.

—Prophet Muhammad, Hadith (Sayings)

what a beautiful quote by our Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH).

I like The black cat and her burning eyes. Killing eyes.

It’s meant to illustrate the killer quote about the power of a burning hear ;)
