More quotes by Rumi
Be silent. That heart speaks without tongue or lips.
Rumi
I am a drunkard from another kind of tavern. I dance to a silent tune. I am the symphony of stars.
Rumi
Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
Sometimes we plan a trip to one place, but something takes us to another
Rumi
Counterfeiters exist because there is such a thing as real gold.
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
The Lover is ever drunk with Love. He is mad. She is free. He sings with delight. She dances in ecstasy. Caught by our own thoughts, we worry about everything. But once we get drunk on that Love Whatever will be, will be.
Rumi
We came whirling out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust... The stars made a circle, and in the middle, we dance.
Rumi
Mount the stallion of love and do not fear the path, love’s stallion knows the way exactly. With one leap, Love’s horse will carry you home.
Rumi
Love is the ark appointed for the righteous, Which annuls the danger and provides a way of escape. Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment. Cleverness is mere opinion, bewilderment intuition.
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
Explanation by the tongue makes most things clear, But love unexplained is clearer.
Rumi
When someone beats a rug, the blows are not against the rug, but against the dust in it.
Rumi
There goes a river dragging an ocean behind it.
Rumi
It was our Creator who led us through the stages of evolution, from the animal state to the human. His purpose was to make us intelligent and aware, so that we might know Him.
Rumi
But meditate now on steadfastness and clarity, and let those be the wings that lift and soar through the celestial spheres.
Rumi
Why struggle to open a door between us when the whole wall is an illusion?
Rumi
What a relief to be empty! Then God can live your life.
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
Love is the vital core of the soul. And of all you see, only love is infinite.
Rumi
