Be quiet now and wait. It may be that the ocean one, the one we desire so to move into and become, desires us out here on land a little longer, going our sundry roads to the shore.

More quotes by Rumi
Love’s secret is always lifting its head out from under the covers, “Here I am!”
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
Happy, not from anything that happens. Warm, not from fire or a hot bath. Light, I register zero on a scale.
Rumi
Listen my love, illumination is eternal. Now is always evolving. As there are billions of stars, there are billions of steps. As there are billions of souls, there are billions of ways to grow.
Rumi
Feel the delight of walking in the noisy street and being the noise.
Rumi
In Silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves.
Rumi
When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.
Rumi
When inward tenderness finds the secret hurt, pain itself will crack the rock and Ah! Let the soul emerge.
Rumi
I have no fear to burn my mouth and throat I’m ready to drink every flame and more.
Rumi
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!
Rumi
All we really want is love's confusing joy.
Rumi
In his mind she lay at his lap with his fingers gliding thru her straight beautiful hair. He smiles and says your beauty lights up everything around you.
Rumi
Stop searching here and there, the jewels are inside YOU.
Rumi
Whenever they rebuild an old building, they must first of all destroy the old one.
Rumi
Behind every atom of this world hides an infinite Universe.
Rumi
Those who practice Love have neither Religion or Status.
Rumi
There is something to be said for anyone who sits alone with dignity and silently begs for God.
Rumi
What you have despised in yourself as a thorn opens into a rose.
Rumi
This is enough was always true. We just haven't seen it.
Rumi
Everything is emptiness. Everything else, accidental. Emptiness brings peace to your loving. Everything else, disease. In this world of trickery, emptiness is what your soul wants.
Rumi
