A Passion for quotations

I have a bit of a passion for quotations. I really enjoy reading thoughtful and concise sentences that contain so much in so few words. Poems and song lyrics come into the same category. One of my favourite poems at the moment, by a poet called Hafiz is:

Now
That
All your worry
Has proved such an
Unlucrative
Business,
Why
Not
Find a better
Job.

For some strange reason I don't; I go over and over the same ground and it is clearly ridiculous. Reading things like this can bring me back to God because they are a bit of sanity when I am losing my perspective.
