Lovers move like lightning and wind. No contest. Theologians mumble, rumble-dumble, necessity and free will, while lover and beloved pull themselves into each other.

More quotes by Rumi
All we really want is love's confusing joy.
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
Where you are, whatever your condition is Always try to be a lover.
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
They say there is a doorway from heart to heart, but what is the use of a door when there are no walls?
Rumi

Rumi
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.

Rumi
Now is the time to unite the Soul and the world.
Rumi
I was there in the beginning and I was the spirit of love.

Rumi
There is a way between voice and presence, where information flows. In disciplined silence it opens with wandering talk it closes.
Rumi
That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.
Rumi
The breath of the flute player: does it belong to the flute?
Rumi
When lovers of life get ready to dance, the earth shakes and the sky trembles.
Rumi
Be silent. That heart speaks without tongue or lips.
Rumi
We all face death in the end. But on the way, be careful never to hurt a human heart!
Rumi
Your name is upon my tongue your image is in my sight your memory is in my heart where can I send these words that I write ?
Rumi
You think the shadow is the substance.
Rumi
I seem restless, but am deeply at ease. Branches tremble the roots are still.
Rumi
