No more words. In the name of this place we drink in with our breathing, stay quiet like a flower. So the nightbirds will start singing.

More quotes by Rumi
Oh soul, you worry too much. You have seen your own strength. You have seen your own beauty. You have seen your golden wings. Of anything less, why do you worry? You are in truth the soul, of the soul, of the soul.
Rumi
Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.
Rumi
I am like the heaven, like the moon, like a candle by your glow I am all reason, all love, all soul, by your soul.
Rumi
What? Are you still pretending you are separate from the Beloved?
Rumi
Sit with lovers and choose their state. Do not stay long with those who are not living in the heart.
Rumi
Birdsong brings relief to my longing. I am just as ecstatic as they are, but with nothing to say.
Rumi
People are distracted by objects of desire, and afterward repent of the lust they've indulged, because they have indulged with a phantom and are left even farther from Reality than before.
Rumi
Behind every atom of this world hides an infinite Universe.
Rumi
Allah made the illusion look real and the real an illusion. He concealed the sea and made the foam visible, the wind invisible, and the dust manifest. you see the dust whirling, but how can the dust rise by itself? you see the foam, but not the ocean. invoke Him with deeds, not words for deeds are real and will save you in the infinite-life.
Rumi
My lips got lost on the way to the kiss - that's how drunk I was.
Rumi
I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul.
Rumi
Rush out in the rain to be soaked with the sky.
Rumi
On a day when the wind is perfect, the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty. Today is such a day.
Rumi
In each moment the fire rages, it will burn away a hundred veils. And carry you a thousand steps toward your goal.
Rumi
A lover is always accused of something. But when he finds his love, whatever was lost in the looking comes back completely changed.
Rumi
You are the Soul and the medicine for what wounds the Soul.
Rumi
And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?
Rumi
The only way to measure a lover is by the grandeur of the beloved.
Rumi
What strikes the oyster shell doesn't damage the pearl.
Rumi
We are pain and what cures pain, both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours. I want to hold you close like a lute, so that we can cry out with loving. Would you rather throw stones at a mirror? I am your mirror and here are the stones.
Rumi
