TurkeyRumi, the great Sufi mystic poet, who lived in Konya in the 13th century, describes a Turkish experience this way:

Come again, please come again.Whoever you are. Religious, infidel, heretic or pagan.Even if you promised a hundred timesAnd a hundred times you broke your promise,This door is not the doorOf hopelessness and frustrationThis door is open for everybody.Come, come as you are.
