More quotes by Rumi
Live at the empty heart of paradox. I'll dance with you there, cheek to cheek.
Rumi
How can you ever hope to know the Beloved Without becoming in every cell the Lover?
Rumi
Set your sights on a place higher than your eyes can see.
Rumi
If my head holds one thought wise and clear, it's You. Poor as I am, what I hold dear is You. No matter how I see myself, I'm nothing ... Anything I am entirely is You!
Rumi
You left and I cried tears of blood. My sorrow grows. Its not just that You left. But when You left my eyes went with You. Now, how will I cry?
Rumi
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
The waterwheel accepts water and turns and gives it away, weeping.
Rumi
I am bewildered by the magnificence of your beauty and wish to see you with a hundred eyes . . . I am in the house of mercy, and my heart is a place of prayer.
Rumi
What? Are you still pretending you are separate from the Beloved?
Rumi
Your worst enemy is hiding within yourself, and that enemy is your nafs or false ego.
Rumi
I never really cared for the things of this world. It was the glow of Your Presence that filled it with beauty.
Rumi
All religions, all this singing, one song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. The sun’s light looks a little different on this wall than it does on that wall, and a lot different on this other one, but it’s still one light.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the soul but LIGHT. Rid yourself of material needs and be set FREE.
Rumi
Don't stray from your Heart's intent.
Rumi
When you see anyone complaining of such and such a person's ill-nature and bad temper, know that the complainant is bad-tempered, forasmuch as he speaks ill of that bad-tempered person, because he alone is good-tempered who is quietly forbearing towards the bad-tempered and ill-natured.
Rumi
Your legs will get heavy and tired. Then comes a moment of feeling the wings you've grown, lifting.
Rumi
How should Spring bring forth a garden on hard stone? Become earth, that you may grow flowers of many colors. For you have been heart-breaking rock. Once, for the sake of experiment, be earth!
Rumi
Find the sweetness in your own heart, then you may find the sweetness in every heart.
Rumi
Smiles come best from those who weep.
Rumi
It is Love and the Lover that live eternally - Don't lend your heart to anything else all else is borrowed.
Rumi
