More quotes by Rumi
Heartsick, heartbroken - to know love is to know pain. What could be more common? Even so, each broken heart is so singular that with it we probe the divine.
Rumi
Love is the reality, and poetry is the drum.
Rumi
Don't see yourself as a body of clay See yourself as a mirror reflecting the divine beauty.
Rumi
Water, stories, the body, all the things we do, are mediums that hid and show what's hidden.
Rumi
Sing to me in the silence of your heart and I will rise up to hear your triumphant song.
Rumi
Every bird will follow it's specie.
Rumi
Empathy is even better than talking in one language
Rumi
Let a thousand wrangling desires become one Love.
Rumi
Love is the sea where intellect drowns.
Rumi
Love Came.... and became like blood in my body. It rushed through my veins and encircled my Heart. Everywhere I looked, I saw One Thing.... Love's Name written on my limbs, on my left palm, on my forehead, on the back of my neck, on my right big toe... Oh, my friend, all that you see of me is just a shell, and the rest belongs to Love.
Rumi
Some huge work goes on growing. How could one person´s words matter? Where you walk heads pop from the ground. What is one seed head compared to you? On my death day I´ll know the answer. I have cleared this house, so that your work can, when it comes, fill every room. I slide like an empty boat pulled over the water.
Rumi
If you want what visible reality can give, you are an employee. If you want the unseen world you are not living with your truth. Both wishes are foolish, but you'll be forgiven for forgetting that what you really want is loves confusing joy.
Rumi
Look as long as you can at the friend you love, no matter whether that friend is moving away from you or coming back toward you.
Rumi
A Candle never Loses any of its Light while Lighting up another candle.
Rumi
Always check your inner state with the lord of your HEART.
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
Wisdom tells us we are not worthy Love tells us we are. My life flows between the two.
Rumi
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as a plant and rose to animal, I died as an animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Rumi
What I had thought of before as God, I met today in a human being.
Rumi
We are born of love. Love is our mother.
Rumi
