There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled. There is a void in your soul, ready to be filled. You feel it, don't you?

More quotes by 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
Conventional opinion is the ruin of our souls.
Rumi
Inside the Great Mystery that is, we don't really own anything. What is this competition we feel then, before we go, one at a time, through the same gate?
Rumi
Would you become a pilgrim on the road of love? The first condition is that you make yourself humble as dust and ashes.
Rumi
Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?
Rumi
Go to the well of deep Love inside each of Us.
Rumi
No mirror ever became iron again No bread ever became wheat No ripened grape ever became sour fruit. Mature yourself and be secure from a change for the worse. Become the light.
Rumi
Not the ones speaking the same language, but the ones sharing the same feeling understand each other.
Rumi
The Heart of the matter is Soul, nothing else.
Rumi
Actually, your soul and mine are the same. We appear and disappear with each other.
Rumi
In Winter the bare boughs that seem to sleep Work covertly, preparing for their Spring.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
Feel the delight of walking in the noisy street and being the noise.
Rumi
Some nights stay up till dawn, as the moon sometimes does for the sun. Be a full bucket pulled up the dark way of a well, then lifted out into light.
Rumi
Throw off your tiredness. Let me show you one tiny spot of the beauty that can't be spoken.
Rumi
I saw many humans on whom there were no clothes. I saw many clothes in which there were no humans.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
Rumi
I turn all thorn then, but you come back again and make my thorniness fragrant and pink and petaled.
Rumi
The satiated person and the hungry one do not see the same thing when they look upon a loaf of bread.
Rumi
