Quote

Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.

Image
Come, even if you have broken your vow one thousand times, come, yet again, come, come.
Rumi
Image
Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing, where something might be planted, a seed, possibly, from the Absolute.
Rumi
Image
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
Image
Explanation by the tongue makes most things clear, But love unexplained is clearer.
Rumi
Image
Your breath touched my soul and I saw beyond all limits.
Rumi
Image
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me. My body is in Love with the soul and the soul is in Love with my body. I opened my arms to Love and Love embraced me like a lover.
Rumi
Image
I said to the night, If you are in love with the moon, it is because you never stay for long. The night turned to me and said, It is not my fault. I never see the Sun, how can I know that love is endless?
Rumi
Image
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi
Image
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door and open the love-window. The moon won't use the door, only the window.
Rumi
Image
Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives. But this dove here senses the love hawk floating above, and waits, and will not be driven or scared to safety.
Rumi
Image
Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul there is no such thing as separation.
Rumi
Image
Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.
Rumi
Image
The heart is the secret inside the secret.
Rumi

What a piece of bread looks like depends on whether you are hungry or not.
Rumi
Image
Remember, the entrance door to the sanctuary is inside you.
Rumi
Image
The spirit is so near that you can't see it! But reach for it... don't be a jar, full of water, whose rim is always dry. Don't be the rider who gallops all night and never sees the horse that is beneath him.
Rumi
Image
If words come out of the heart, they will enter the heart.
Rumi
Image
Our purpose here on earth: to manifest the very nature of our spirit, which is touched by the spirit of God.
Rumi
Image
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
Image
Ecstatic Love is an ocean, and the Milky Way is a flake of foam floating on it.
Rumi
