Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!

More quotes by Rumi
What is planted in each person's soul will sprout.
Rumi
Your legs will get heavy and tired. Then comes a moment of feeling the wings you've grown, lifting.
Rumi
You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains.
Rumi
By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.
Rumi
My religion is to be alive from LOVE.
Rumi
Love is the soul's light, the taste of morning, no me, no we, no claim of being.
Rumi
Play the flute of felicity! You, yourself, are the melody.
Rumi
Let silence take you to the core of life.
Rumi
There is an original inside me.
Rumi
Live at the empty heart of paradox. I'll dance with you there, cheek to cheek.
Rumi
The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you Don't go back to sleep! You must ask for what you really want. Don't go back to sleep! People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch, The door is round and open Don't go back to sleep!
Rumi
From the Distance You only See My Light Come closer and You will Know that I Am You.
Rumi
Flow down and down in always widening rings of being.
Rumi
O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now, be all.
Rumi
Fasting is an amazing thing. It gives people heart and soul.
Rumi
In the orchard and rose garden I long to see your face. In the taste of Sweetness I long to kiss your lips. In the shadows of passion I long for your love.
Rumi
Pure souls, didn’t I tell you not to be seduced by this colorful world for I am the Ultimate Painter.
Rumi
He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
If you could leave your selfishness, you would see how you've been torturing your soul.
Rumi
