More quotes by Rumi
If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.
Rumi
We bury our seeds and wait, Winter blocks the road, Flowers are taken prisoner underground, But then green justice tenders a spear
Rumi
There is a field beyond all notions of right and wrong. Come, meet me there.
Rumi
If Light Is In Your Heart You Will Find Your Way Home.
Rumi
What draws friends together does not conform to the laws of nature.
Rumi
Don't regret what's happened. If it's in the past, LET IT GO. Don't even remember it!
Rumi
Sing to me in the silence of your heart and I will rise up to hear your triumphant song.
Rumi
Wisdom tells us we are not worthy Love tells us we are. My life flows between the two.
Rumi
Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
Rumi
I turn all thorn then, but you come back again and make my thorniness fragrant and pink and petaled.
Rumi
Who gets up early to discover the moment light begins?
Rumi
When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you're not here, I can't go to sleep. Praise God for those two insomnias! And the difference between them.
Rumi
If you want money more than anything, you'll be bought and sold. If you have a greed for food, you'll be a loaf of bread. This is a subtle truth: Whatever you love, you are.
Rumi
Play the flute of felicity! You, yourself, are the melody.
Rumi
I am your own voice echoing off the walls of God
Rumi
O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now, Be all – worlds dissolve into your stainless endless radiance, Frail living leaves burn with your brighter than cold stares – Make me your servant, your breath, your core.
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
In love’s country, language doesn’t have its place. Love is mute.
Rumi
One of the marvels of the world: The sight of a soul sitting in prison with the key in its hand.
Rumi
Allah made the illusion look real and the real an illusion. He concealed the sea and made the foam visible, the wind invisible, and the dust manifest. you see the dust whirling, but how can the dust rise by itself? you see the foam, but not the ocean. invoke Him with deeds, not words for deeds are real and will save you in the infinite-life.
