God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. Remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. Don't try to end it. Be your note.
Rumi

More quotes by Rumi
Within tears, find hidden laughter Seek treasures amid ruins, sincere one.
Rumi
You believe God is not there, but He is, Hidden in the secret of the divine mystery
Rumi
Why am I seeking? I am the same as he. His essence speaks through me. I have been looking for myself
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence, or in absence. Both mourn, the angels, the prophets, and this sadness I feel has taken from me the taste of language, so that I cannot say the flavor of my being apart.
Rumi
You think because you understand 'one' you must also understand 'two', because one and one make two. But you must also understand 'and'.
Rumi
How can you ever hope to know the Beloved Without becoming in every cell the Lover?
Rumi
Our greatest strength lies in the gentleness and tenderness of our heart.
Rumi
Awe is the salve that will heal our eyes.
Rumi
Do not sit long with a sad friend. When you go to a garden do you look at the weeds? Spend more time with the roses and jasmines.
Rumi
The wealth within you, your essence, is your kingdom.
Rumi
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?
Rumi
You rave about the Holy Place (Masjid al-Haram) and say you've visited God's garden but where is your bunch of flowers? There is some merit in the suffering you have endured but what a pity you have not discovered the Makkah thats inside
Rumi
I am pure light, not just a fistful of clay. The shell is not me, I came as the royal pearl within. Look at me not with outward eye but with inward vision of the heart Follow me there and see how unencumbered we become.
Rumi
Regard a king as someone unconcerned with kingship.
Rumi
You the one in all, say who I am. Say I am you.
Rumi
When you eventually see through the veils to how things really are, you will keep saying again and again, this is certainly not like we thought it was.
Rumi
Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.
Rumi
Water in the boat is the ruin of the boat, but water under the boat is its support.
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
When love is not accepted move on when love is not appreciated walk away hopefully time will teach what real, true love is.
Rumi
