Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison When the door is so wide open?

More quotes by Rumi
When the ocean surges, don't let me just hear it. Let it splash inside my chest!
Rumi
My heart is so small it's almost invisible. How can You place such big sorrows in it? Look, He answered, your eyes are even smaller, yet they behold the world.
Rumi
The Eternal looked upon me for a moment with His eye of power, and annihilated me in His being, and become manifest to me in His essence. I saw I existed through Him.
Rumi
Don't dismiss the heart, even if it's filled with sorrow. God's treasures are buried in broken hearts.
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did about the future. Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
I drank water from your spring and felt the current take me.
Rumi
Your worst enemy is hiding within yourself, and that enemy is your nafs or false ego.
Rumi
We can't help being thirsty, moving toward the voice of water. Milk drinkers draw close to the mother. Muslims, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, shamans, everyone hears the intelligent sound and moves with thirst to meet it.
Rumi
The fault is in the one who blames. Spirit sees nothing to criticize.
Rumi
I saw grief drinking a cup of sorrow and called out, 'It tastes sweet, does it not?' 'You've caught me,' grief answered, 'and you've ruined my business. How can I sell sorrow, when you know it's a blessing?
Rumi
Be like a river in generosity and giving help. Be like a sun in tenderness and pity. Be like night when covering other's faults. Be like a dead when furious and angry. Be like earth in modesty and humbleness. Be like a sea in tolerance. Be as you are or as you look like.
Rumi
From the urgent way lovers want each other to the seeker's search for truth, all moving is from the mover. Every Pull Draws Us To The Ocean.
Rumi
Such a strong thing LOVE, changes everything.
Rumi
Dancing is not just getting up painlessly, like a leaf blown on the wind dancing is when you tear your heart out and rise out of your body to hang suspended between the worlds.
Rumi
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire.
Rumi
Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.
Rumi
If you only say one prayer in a day make it Thank You.
Rumi
There is little one can say about love. It has to be lived, and it's always in motion.
Rumi
Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
Rumi
How far is the light of the moon from the moon? How far is the taste of candy from the lip?
Rumi
