More quotes by Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
Darkness is your candle. Your boundaries are your quest.
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
Lovers are patient and know that the moon needs time to become full.
Rumi
O my choice beauty You've gone But your love remains in my heart Your image in my eye O guide on my winding road I keep turning round and round in the hopes of Finding you

We are pain and what cures pain, both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours. I want to hold you close like a lute, so that we can cry out with loving. Would you rather throw stones at a mirror? I am your mirror and here are the stones.
Rumi
Raise your words, not your voice.
Rumi
I am a bird of God's garden and I do not belong to this dusty world For a day or two they have put me here in this cage of my own body I did not come here of my own I will not return of my own to my own country.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.
Rumi
Yesterday is gone and took away its tale. Today we must live a fresh story again.
Rumi
People who repress desires often turn, suddenly, into hypocrites.
Rumi
Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.
Rumi
