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.

More quotes by Rumi
Lovers have heartaches That can't be cured by drugs Or sleep, Or games, But only by seeing their beloved.
Rumi
Is your face a beautiful blossom or a sweet torture? I have no complaints but my heart is tempted to let you hear of its sorrows.
Rumi
Because I cannot sleep I make music at night.
Rumi
The intelligent desire self-control children want candy.
Rumi
What shall I say, O Muslims, I know not myself, I am neither a Christian, nor a Jew, nor a Zoroastrian, nor a Muslim.
Rumi
If you only say one prayer in a day make it Thank You.
Rumi
They say there is a doorway from heart to heart, but what is the use of a door when there are no walls?
Rumi
Open the window of your heart and let the Spirit speak
Rumi
There’s nothing left of me. I’m like a ruby held up to the sunrise. Is it still a stone, or a world made of redness? It has no resistance to sunlight.
Rumi
You had better run from me. My words are fire.
Rumi
Why should I be weary when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
Rumi
When water gets caught in habitual whirlpools, dig a way out through the bottom of the ocean.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge of driftwood along the beach, wanting! They derive from a slow and powerful root that we can’t see. Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.
Rumi
Learn to speak by listening.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the SOUL but LIGHT.
Rumi
In the garden I see only your face From trees and blossoms I inhale only your fragrance.
Rumi
When you're traveling, ask the traveler for advice / not someone whose lameness keeps him in one place.
Rumi
He whose intellect overcomes his lust is higher than the angels he whose lust overcomes his intelligence is less than an animal.
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
