The world's flattery and hypocrisy is a sweet morsel: eat less of it, for it is full of fire. Its fire is hidden while its taste is manifest, but its smoke becomes visible in the end.

Rumi
Your defects are the ways that glory gets manifested ... That's where the Light enters you.
Rumi

Rumi
And watch two men washing clothes, one makes dry clothes wet. The other makes wet clothes dry. they seem to be thwarting each other, but their work is a perfect harmony. Every holy person seems to have a different doctrine and practice, but there's really only one work.
Rumi
People are distracted by objects of desire, and afterward repent of the lust they've indulged, because they have indulged with a phantom and are left even farther from Reality than before.
Rumi
Be with those who help your being. Don't sit with indifferent people, whose breath comes cold out of their mouths.
Rumi
Dance when you're perfectly free.
Rumi
Every object, every being...is a jar full of delight.
Rumi
Love is a madman, working his wild schemes, tearing off his clothes, running through the mountains...
Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
For those who realize that everything is from God, everything is the same.
Rumi
If you love someone, you are always joined with them--in joy, in absence, in solitude, in strife.
Rumi
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.
Rumi
