A Quote by Rumi
Through your love
existence and nonexistence merge.
All opposites unite.
All that is profane
becomes sacred again.

Therefore your notions should not scare you if you see another, who absolutely opposes you, and you presume that there is no chance for peace between you two.

On the contrary, and this is the perfection of peace to make it between two opposites.
