Wayfarer Quotes 

The wayfarer, Perceiving the pathway to truth, Was struck with astonishment. It was thickly grown with weeds. "Ha," he said, "I see that none has passed here In a long time." Later he saw that each weed Was a singular knife. "Well," he mumbled at last, "Doubtless there are other roads."

And what is more melancholy than the old apple-trees that linger about the spot where once stood a homestead, but where there is now only a ruined chimney rising out of a grassy and weed-grown cellar? They offer their fruit to every wayfarer apples that are bitter-sweet with the moral of time's vicissitude.

Nathaniel Hawthorne

— Nathaniel Hawthorne, Mosses from an Old Manse, The Old Manse, "Time's vicissitude".

And Allah is Possessor of power over all things.
