More quotes by Rumi
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Rumi
Never lose hope, my heart, miracles dwell in the invisible. If the whole world turns against you keep your eyes on the Friend.
Rumi
Be silent, Only the Hand of God Can remove The burdens of your heart.
Rumi
I know you're tired but come, this is the way.
Rumi
Every midwife knows that not until a mother’s womb softens from the pain of labor will a way unfold and the infant find that opening to be born. Oh friend! There is treasure in your heart, it is heavy with child. Listen. All the awakened ones, like trusted midwives are saying, 'welcome this pain. It opens the dark passage of Grace.
Rumi
Don't dismiss the heart, even if it's filled with sorrow. God's treasures are buried in broken hearts.
Rumi
Whoever finds love beneath hurt and grief disappears into emptiness with a thousand new disguises
Rumi
In your beauty, how to make poems.
Rumi
Discard yourself and thereby regain yourself. Spread the trap of humility and ensnare love.
Rumi
There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen.
Rumi
Why should I be weary when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
Rumi
A lover in life will be a lover in death, a lover in the tomb, a lover in paradise, a lover on the day of resurrection.
Rumi
Don't put blankets over the drum! Open completely. Let your spirit ear listen to the green dome's passionate murmur.
Rumi
I’ve been looking for a long, long time, for this thing called love, I’ve ridden comets across the sky, and I’ve looked below and above. Then one day I looked inside myself, and this is what I found, A golden sun residing there, beaming forth God’s light and sound.
Rumi
That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.
Rumi
The spirit and the body carry different loads and require different attentions. Too often we put the saddlebags on Jesus and let the donkey run loose in the pasture.
Rumi
Love is an endless ocean, with no beginning or end. Imagine, a suspended ocean, riding on a cushion of ancient secrets.
Rumi
What does this patch-sewing mean you ask? Eating and drinking. The heavy cloak of the body is always getting torn. You patch it with food and other ego-satisfactions.
Rumi
I have no name for what circles so perfectly.
Rumi
Flow down and down in always widening rings of being.
Rumi
