More quotes by Rumi
I'm in love! Your advice, what are they? Love has poisoned me! Your remedies, what are they? I hear them shout: fast, Bind him feet! But if my heart that has gone mad! Those strings on my feet What is the point?
Rumi
The same wind that uproots trees makes the grass shine. The lordly wind loves the weakness and the lowness of grasses. Never brag of being strong. The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are. It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves. It leaves the leaves alone.
Rumi
I do not know who lives here in my chest, or why the smile comes. I am not myself, more the bare green knob of a rose that lost every leaf and petal to the morning wind.
Rumi
There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled.
Rumi
Beauty surrounds us.
Rumi
O Beloved, where is the Beloved?
Rumi
I have no fear to burn my mouth and throat I’m ready to drink every flame and more.
Rumi
You've been walking the ocean's edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper!
Rumi
Many prayers are declined because of the rank odor of a corrupt heart, rising through the beautiful words. Let the words be wrong but the meaning right. . . . That flawed utterance is dearer to God!
Rumi
Love is the reality, and poetry is the drum.
Rumi
The Soul is a stranger trying to find a Home somewhere that is not a where.
Rumi
You run back and forth listening for unusual events, peering into the faces of travelers. Why are you looking at me like a madman? I have lost a friend. Please forgive me.
Rumi
The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities.
Rumi
What a piece of bread looks like depends on whether you are hungry or not.
Rumi
Your legs will get heavy and tired. Then comes a moment of feeling the wings you've grown, lifting.
Rumi
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
I should be suspicious of what I want.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky
Rumi
Someday our souls will be one and our union will be forever. I know that everything I give you comes back to me. So I give you my life , hoping that you will come back to me.
Rumi
We bury our seeds and wait, Winter blocks the road, Flowers are taken prisoner underground, But then green justice tenders a spear
Rumi
