Rumi
You think the shadow is the substance.
Rumi
Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment. Cleverness is mere opinion. Bewilderment brings intuitive knowledge.
Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky
Rumi
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart
Rumi
You've been walking the ocean's edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper!

Come to the Root of the Root of your Self
Rumi
Bring the sky beneath your feet and listen to celestial music everywhere.
Rumi
