Stars burn clear all night till dawn. Do that yourself, and a spring will rise in the dark with water your deepest thirst is for.

More quotes by Rumi
The intellectual quest is exquisite like pearls and coral, But it is not the same as the spiritual quest. The spiritual quest is on another level altogether, Spiritual wine has a subtler taste. The intellect and the senses investigate cause and effect. The spiritual seeker surrenders to the wonder.
Rumi
Love isn't the work of the tender and the gentle Love is the work of wrestlers. The one who becomes a servant of lovers is really a fortunate sovereign. Don't ask anyone about Love ask Love about Love. Love is a cloud that scatters pearls.
Rumi
How could you reach the pearl by only looking at the sea? If you seek the pearl, be a diver: the diver needs several qualities: he must trust his rope and his life to the Friend's hand, he must stop breathing, and he must jump.
Rumi
Such a strong thing LOVE, changes everything.
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
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.
Rumi
Those with open hearts always have open hands.
Rumi
We are all bathed in the same light.
Rumi
Do good to the people for the sake of God or for the peace of your own soul that you may always see what is pure and save your Heart from the darkness of hate
Rumi
If words come out of the heart, they will enter the heart.
Rumi
Although I may try to describe Love, When I experience it, I am speechless.
Rumi
We rarely hear the inward music, but we're all dancing to it nevertheless.
Rumi
I cannot stop asking. If I could taste one sip of an answer, I could break out of this prison for drunks.
Rumi
Lo, for I to myself am unknown, now in God's name what must I do?
Rumi
O Beloved, where is the Beloved?
Rumi
A generous friend gives life for a friend let's rise above this animalistic behavior and be kind to one another
Rumi
Sit with lovers and choose their state. Do not stay long with those who are not living in the heart.
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.
Rumi
Dance until you shatter yourself.
Rumi
Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone's soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.
Rumi
