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.

More quotes by Rumi
Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.
Rumi
The intellectual quest is exquisite like pearls and coral, But it is not the same as the spiritual quest. The spiritual quest is on another level altogether, Spiritual wine has a subtler taste. The intellect and the senses investigate cause and effect. The spiritual seeker surrenders to the wonder.
Rumi
Know mankind well, don't degrade every man as evil, and don't exalt every man thinking he is good. He who cannot discover himself cannot discover the world.
Rumi
There is a path from me to you that I am constantly looking for.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
Rumi
People of the world don't look at themselves, and so they blame one another.
Rumi
Ground yourself, strip yourself down, To blind loving Silence
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence, or in absence. Both mourn, the angels, the prophets, and this sadness I feel has taken from me the taste of language, so that I cannot say the flavor of my being apart.
Rumi
Counterfeiters exist because there is such a thing as real gold.
Rumi
...Blessed is anyone who knows who he or she really is and builds a place to live there.
Rumi
This is enough was always true. We just haven't seen it.
Rumi
Love is such a vast sea, it has neither edges nor ends nor corners.
Rumi
To wander in the fields of flowers, pull the thorns from your heart.
Rumi
Clean out your ears, don't listen for what you already know.
Rumi
I want to be where your bare foot walks, because maybe before you step, you'll look at the ground. I want that blessing
Rumi
Then outwardly you are the small universe! Then inwardly you are the great universe.
Rumi
It was our Creator who led us through the stages of evolution, from the animal state to the human. His purpose was to make us intelligent and aware, so that we might know Him.
Rumi
A heart filled with love is like a phoenix that no cage can imprison.
Rumi
