More quotes by Rumi
There's no one with intelligence in this town except that man over there playing with the children, the one riding the stick horse. He has keen, fiery insight and vast dignity like the night sky, but he conceals it in the madness of child's play.
Rumi
Kill the cow of your ego as quickly as you can, so that your inner spirit can come to life and attain true awareness.
Rumi
Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.
Rumi
Every door is another passage, another boundary we have to go beyond.
Rumi
There’s a morning when presence comes over your soul. You sing like a rooster in your earth-colored shape. Your heart hears and, no longer frantic, begins to dance.
Rumi
I am a child whose teacher is LOVE surely my master won't let me grow to be a fool.
Rumi
Friendship of the wise is good a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend.
Rumi
By the mercy of Allah Paradise has eight doors one of those is the door of repentance, child. All the others are sometimes open, sometimes shut, but the door of repentance is never closed. Come seize the opportunity: the door is open carry your baggage there at once.
Rumi
If you wish to shine like day, burn up the night of self-existence. Dissolve in the Being who is everything.
Rumi
For the thirst to possess your love, Is worth my blood a hundred times.
Rumi
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
Rumi
There is an unseen sweetness in the stomach’s emptiness. We are lutes. When the sound box is filled, no music can come forth. When the brain and the belly burn from fasting, every moment a new song rises out of the fire. The mists clear, and a new vitality makes you spring up the steps before you . . .
Rumi
Don't insist on going where you think you want to go. Ask the way to the spring.
Rumi
When one sense perceives the hidden, the invisible world becomes apparent to the whole.
Rumi
In every religion there is love, yet love has no religion.
Rumi
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
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
Cease looking for flowers! There blooms a garden in your own home. While you look for trinkets The treasure house awaits you in your own being.
Rumi
Lo, for I to myself am unknown, now in God's name what must I do?
Rumi
The mirror of the heart must be clear, so you can discern the ugly from the beautiful.
Rumi
