Those who learned to be truly human
found everything in being humble
while those who looked proudly from above
were pushed down the stairs.
A heart that must always feel superior
will one day lose its way.
What should be within leaks out...
A Poem by Yunus Emre (1240-1321)
The Drop that became the Sea, translated by Helminski and Algan (1989)
