Prologue: "This being human is a guest house.
Every morning is a new arrival."
"Welcome them all! Even if they are a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of your furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight."
"The dark thought, the shame, the malice. Be grateful for whatever comes. Because each has been sent As a guide from beyond.--The guest house--Rumi"
