[slm]   This quote came up on my homepage this morning, and I thought instantly how "Islamic" it sounded :) :          ' In the dessert of the heart            Let the healing fountain start,            In the prison of his days            Teach the free man how to praise.'                     W. H. Auden      [wlm]  :-) Laila

[slm] REMINDS ME OF ANOTHER ONE I READ IN ONE OF THE FOOT NOTES IN YOUSUF ALI'S TRANSALATION "OARS ALONE CAN NEVER PREVAIL TO REACH THE DISTANT SHORE THE WINDS OF HEAVEN SHOULD SWELL THE SAIL OR ALL THE TOIL IS LOST"
