More quotes by Rumi
You have forgotten the One who doesn't care about ownership, who doesn't try to turn a profit from every human exchange.
Rumi
Treasure is stored in the ruined places. Do not break the hearts of the poor and heartbroken people
Rumi
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door and open the love-window. The moon won't use the door, only the window.
Rumi
I saw many humans on whom there were no clothes. I saw many clothes in which there were no humans.
Rumi
If you want money more than anything, you'll be bought and sold your whole life.
Rumi
Anyone who knows me, should learn to know me again For I am like the Moon, you will see me with new face everyday.
Rumi
Love cannot be learned or taught. Love comes as Grace.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.

Rumi
Let your throat-song be clear and strong enough to make an emperor fall full-length suppliant, at the door.
Rumi
Intellect in its effort to explain Love got stuck in the mud like an ass. Love alone could explain love and loving.
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
When water gets caught in habitual whirlpools, dig a way out through the bottom of the ocean.
Rumi
Every moment, a voice, out of this world, calls on our soul, to wake up and rise.
Rumi
Don't be sad! Because God sends hope in the most desperate moments. Don't forget, the heaviest rain comes out of the darkest clouds.
Rumi
If your heart isn't yet illumined Be awake always, be a seeker of the heart, Be at war continually with your carnal soul. But if your heart is already awakened, Sleep peacefully, sleep in the arms of Love
Rumi
In your beauty, how to make poems.
Rumi
In real existence there is only unity.

Whenever they rebuild an old building, they must first of all destroy the old one.
Rumi
