Quote
We are born of woman, we are conceived in the womb of woman, we are engaged and married to woman. We befriend woman and our lineages continue because of woman. When one woman dies, we take another one, we are bound with the world through woman. Why should we talk ill of her, who gives birth to kings? The woman is born from woman; there is none without her. Only the One True Lord is without woman
Guru Nanak Dev Ji, Var Asa, pg. 473

When the hands and the feet and the body are dirty, water can wash away the dirt. When the clothes are soiled and stained by urine, soap can wash them clean. But when the intellect is stained and polluted by sin, it can only be cleansed by the Love of the Name.
