The angel is free because of his knowledge, the beast because of his ignorance. Between the two remains the son of man to struggle.

More quotes by Rumi
If you are seeking, seek us with joy For we live in the kingdom of joy. Do not give your heart to anything else But to the love of those who are clear joy, Do not stray into the neighborhood of despair. For there are hopes: they are real, they exist – Do not go in the direction of darkness – I tell you: suns exist.
Rumi
We can't find the truth listening to our own voice's echo. We can find ourselves only in someone's mirror
Rumi
Enough of words. Come to me without a sound.
Rumi
Set your sights on a place higher than your eyes can see.
Rumi
Fasting is the first principle of medicine fast and see the strength of the spirit reveal itself.
Rumi
For years, copying other people, I tried to know myself. From within, I couldn't decide what to do. Unable to see, I heard my name being called. Then I walked outside.
Rumi
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Rumi
...one cannot lodge in if.
Rumi
A lover is always accused of something. But when he finds his love, whatever was lost in the looking comes back completely changed.
Rumi
When lovers of life get ready to dance, the earth shakes and the sky trembles.
Rumi
Soul of all souls, life of all life - you are That. Seen and unseen, moving and unmoving - you are That.
Rumi
Look at these worlds spinning out of nothingness. That is within your power.
Rumi
And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?
Rumi
Get yourself out of the way, and let Joy have more space.
Rumi
The universe and the light of the stars come through me.
Rumi
Be soulful. Be kind. Be in love.
Rumi
The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in.
Rumi
You suppose you are the trouble But you are the cure You suppose that you are the lock on the door But you are the key that opens it It's too bad that you want to be someone else You don't see your own face, your own beauty Yet, no face is more beautiful than yours.
Rumi
Be motivated like the falcon, hunt gloriously. Be magnificent as the leopard, fight to win. Spend less time with nightingales and peacocks. One is all talk, the other only color.
Rumi
This mirror inside me shows. I can’t say what, but I can’t not know. I run from body. I run from spirit. I do not belong anywhere.
Rumi
