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.

More quotes by Rumi
Love is an open secret, the most obvious thing in the world and the most hidden, with no why to how it keeps its mystery.
Rumi
Love is the reality, and poetry is the drum.
Rumi
For only when faithfulness turns to betrayal And betrayal into trust Can any human being become part of the truth.
Rumi
Lo, for I to myself am unknown, now in God's name what must I do?
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did about the future. Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
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
Your heart mirrors not His love, Rusty with your sins it is, Remove this rust and you shall Perceive how Glorious He is.
Rumi
May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
...one cannot lodge in if.
Rumi
I am part of the load not rightly balanced . . .
Rumi
I'm dominated by Love, By my passion of love for Love
Rumi
You do not see clearly the evil in yourself, else you would hate yourself with all your soul. Like the lion who sprang at his image in the water, you are only hurting yourself, O foolish man. When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
We can't help being thirsty, moving toward the voice of water. Milk drinkers draw close to the mother. Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, shamans, everyone hears the intelligent sound and moves with thirst to meet it.
Rumi
Go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen.
Rumi
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more - more unseen forms become manifest to him.
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
Then outwardly you are the small universe! Then inwardly you are the great universe.
Rumi
Yesterday is gone and took away its tale. Today we must live a fresh story again.
Rumi
Darkness is your candle. Your boundaries are your quest.
Rumi
