More quotes by Rumi
Never be without remembrance of Him, for His remembrance gives strength and wings to the bird of the Spirit.
Rumi
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
Whether you love God or you love a human being, if you love enough you will come into the presence of Love itself.
Rumi
Are you jealous of the ocean’s generosity? Why would you refuse to give this joy to anyone? Fish don’t hold the sacred liquid in cups! They swim the huge fluid freedom.
Rumi
We are born of love. Love is our mother.
Rumi
Don't stray from your Heart's intent.
Rumi
Close your eyes, fall in Love, stay there.
Rumi
If my head holds one thought wise and clear, it's You. Poor as I am, what I hold dear is You. No matter how I see myself, I'm nothing ... Anything I am entirely is You!
Rumi
Sometimes we plan a trip to one place, but something takes us to another
Rumi
Everything in the universe is a pitcher brimming with wisdom and beauty.
Rumi
When someone beats a rug, the blows are not against the rug, but against the dust in it.
Rumi
I opened my arms to Love and Love embraced me like a Lover
Rumi
Love is the house of God and you are living in that house.
Rumi
This is how I would die into the love I have for you: As pieces of cloud dissolve in sunlight.
Rumi
All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
Rumi
This is how it always is when I finish a poem. A great silence overcomes me and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.
Rumi
Your light is more magnificent than sunrise or sunset
Rumi
You show your worth by what you seek.
Rumi
What can I do my friends, if I do not know? I am neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim nor Hindu. What can I do? What can I do? Not of the East, nor of the West, Nor of the land, nor of the sea, Not of nature's essence, nor of circling heavens. What could I be?
Rumi
We are as the flute, and the music in us is from thee we are as the mountain and the echo in us is from thee.
Rumi
