Love asks us to enjoy our life For nothing good can come of death. Who is alive? I ask. Those who are born of love. Seek us in love itself, Seek love in us ourselves. Sometimes I venerate love, Sometimes it venerates me.
Rumi

More quotes by Rumi
Submit to a daily practice. Your loyalty to that is a ring at the door. Keep knocking, and the joy inside will eventually open a window and look out to see who's there.
Rumi
I have no companion but Love, no beginning, no end, no dawn. The Soul calls from within me: 'You, ignorant of the way of Love, set Me free.'
Rumi
people want you to be happy, don't keep serving them your pain
Rumi
I learned that every mortal will taste death. But only some will taste life.
Rumi
Dive today from the cliff of what you know into what you can't know.
Rumi
You do not see clearly the evil in yourself, else you would hate yourself with all your soul. Like the lion who sprang at his image in the water, you are only hurting yourself, O foolish man. When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
If you want what visible reality can give, you are an employee. If you want the unseen world you are not living with your truth. Both wishes are foolish, but you'll be forgiven for forgetting that what you really want is loves confusing joy.
Rumi
When you seek Love with all your Heart, you shall find its echoes in the universe.
Rumi
When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
You moan, She left me. He left me, Twenty more will come.
Rumi
Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.
Rumi
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
Rumi
Dear soul, don't set a high value on someone before they deserve it You either lose them or ruin yourself...!
Rumi
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Rumi
Beyond the rightness or wrongness of things there is a field, I'll meet you there
Rumi
When something goes wrong, accuse yourself first. Even the wisdom of Plato or Solomon can wobble and go blind
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
