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
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
I do not know who lives here in my chest, or why the smile comes. I am not myself, more the bare green knob of a rose that lost every leaf and petal to the morning wind.
Rumi
There is a place where voices sing your beauty, A place where every breath carves your image in my soul.
Rumi
Protect yourself......from your own thoughts.
Rumi
Knowledge that is acquired is not like this. Those who have it worry if audiences like it or not. It's a bait for popularity. Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul... The only real customer is God. Chew quietly your sweet sugarcane God-Love, and stay playfully childish.
Rumi
Be silent. That heart speaks without tongue or lips.
Rumi
That which is false troubles the heart, but truth brings joyous tranquility.
Rumi
I'm in love! Your advice, what are they? Love has poisoned me! Your remedies, what are they? I hear them shout: fast, Bind him feet! But if my heart that has gone mad! Those strings on my feet What is the point?
Rumi
On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion.
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
I lost everything i have, found myself.
Rumi
Love is the house of God and you are living in that house.
Rumi
Pour out wine till I become a wanderer from myself for in selfhood and existence I have felt only fatigue.
Rumi
The drum of the realization of the promise is beating, we are sweeping the road to the sky. Your joy is here today, what remains for tomorrow?
Rumi
Don’t wait any longer. Dive in the ocean, Leave and let the sea be you.
Rumi
Every moment a taste of that beauty in our mouths, another stashed in a pocket. Impossible to say what: no cypress so handsome, no sunlight, a lonely hiddenness. Other pleasure gathers a crowd, starts a fight, lots of noise there. But soul beauty stays quiet..his amazing whereabouts unknown inside my heart.
Rumi
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
There is no salvation for the soul but to fall in love.
Rumi
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
