More quotes by Rumi
people want you to be happy, don't keep serving them your pain
Rumi
We are all the same ... all the same... longing to find our way back ... back to the One ... back to the Only One!
Rumi
Be melting snow. Wash yourself of yourself.
Rumi
People of the world don't look at themselves, and so they blame one another.
Rumi
Be drunk with Love, for Love is all that exists. Where is intimacy found if not in the give and take of Love.
Rumi
Whoever is sitting with friends is in the midst of a flower garden, though he may be in the fire. Whoever sits with an enemy is in the fire, even though he is in the midst of a garden.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
Those who don't feel this love pulling them like a river, those who don't drink dawn like a cup of springwater or take in sunset like a supper, those who don't want to change, let them sleep.
Rumi
In Winter the bare boughs that seem to sleep Work covertly, preparing for their Spring.
Rumi
Keep digging your well. Water is there somewhere.
Rumi
This is how I would die into the love I have for you: As pieces of cloud dissolve in sunlight.
Rumi
Your breath touched my soul and I saw beyond all limits.
Rumi
Whatever posessions and objects of its desires the lower self may obtain, it hangs on to them, refusing to let them go out of greed for more, or out of fear of poverty and need.
Rumi
Why are you so enchanted by this world, when a mine of gold lies within you?
Rumi
I grow silent. Dear soul, you speak.
Rumi
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!
Rumi
If it is bread that you seek, you will have bread. If it is the soul you seek, you will find the soul. If you understand this secret, you know you are that which you seek.
Rumi
Seek the sound that never ceases. Seek the sun that never sets.
Rumi
Don't put blankets over the drum! Open completely. Let your spirit ear listen to the green dome's passionate murmur.
Rumi
All loves are a bridge to Divine love. Yet, those who have not had a taste of it do not know!
Rumi
