Hard and dry, a chickpea is inedible. Hard and dry, a heart is unlovable. Presoak it in dance, music and art.

About This Quote

A chickpea in a dry and hard state is not only a hard and dry object but a chickpea that is also inedible. Similarly, a heart in a state of dryness and hardness is not only a hard and dried-up heart but one that is also unlovable. In order for a heart to be loved, it must be soaked in the elements of music, dance and art. When the heart is prepared from the outside, from all the elements that make up human love, then it can be loved from inside.
