Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.

Rumi
Give your life to the one who already owns your breath and your moments.
Rumi
Forget every touch or sound that did not teach you how to dance
Rumi
Gamble everything for love, if you are a true human being. If not, leave this gathering. Half-heartedness doesn’t reach into majesty.
Rumi
You are the Soul and the medicine for what wounds the Soul.
Rumi
Love is the soul's light, the taste of morning, no me, no we, no claim of being.
Rumi
Only from the heart can you touch the sky.
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
Love risks everything and asks for nothing.
Rumi
Wisdom tells us we are not worthy Love tells us we are. My life flows between the two.
Rumi
Brother, stand the pain. Escape the poison of your impulses. The sky will bow to your beauty, if you do. Learn to light the candle. Rise with the sun. Turn away from the cave of your sleeping. That way a thorn expands to a rose.
Rumi
Your breath touched my soul and I saw beyond all limits.
Rumi
Be silent, Only the Hand of God Can remove The burdens of your heart.
Rumi
When one sense perceives the hidden, the invisible world becomes apparent to the whole.
Rumi
LOVE and LOVER live in Eternity. Other desires are substitutes for that way of being.
Rumi
Oh you, unceasing sun, to me Your particles communicate The luminous essence of God, Are you our God? I do not know. Intoxicated, I say nought, Bewitched by the magic potion. I cannot differentiate Between my drunk and sober state.
Rumi
I want your sun to reach my raindrops, so your heat can raise my soul upward like a cloud.
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
Revile those who flatter you.
Rumi
Whosoever knoweth the power of the dance, dwelleth in God.
Rumi
