Imam Al- Kazim said : “Luqman said to his son: “the world is a deep ocean in which many worlds hav already drowned, so make Godwariness (taqwa) your boat, faith its content, trust in Allah its sail, reason its custodian, knowledge its guide, and patience its inhabitants.” (Mizan Al-Hikmah h. 4573).

“The world is like the water of the ocean. The more a thirsty person drinks from it, the thirstier he becomes, until it kills him.” (Imam Jafar Sadeq – Al – Kafi , Vol. II, # 24)
