Quote by Rumi

You're water. We're the millstone.You're wind. We're dust blown up into shapes.You're spirit. We're the opening and closing of our hands. You're the clarity.We're the language that tries to say it.You're joy. We're all the different kinds of laughing.

You're water. We're the millstone.You're wind. We're dust bl

Summary

This quote metaphorically illustrates the contrast between two entities: "You" and "We." It conveys the idea that while You possess certain qualities such as fluidity, strength, and clarity, We are merely influenced and transformed by these qualities. You represent elements of nature and spirituality that are powerful and intangible, whereas We symbolize human beings and our feeble attempts to articulate and express these abstract experiences. Ultimately, You encompass joy and its various manifestations, while We are the multitude of ways in which that joy is expressed through laughter.

The morality of compromise' sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised. I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.
