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
Dance where you can break yourself up to pieces and totally abandon your worldly passions.
Rumi
I went inside my heart to see how it was. Something there makes me hear the whole world weeping.
Rumi
Finding faults is for those with tired minds.
Rumi
Your earthly lover can be charming and coquettish but never very faithful. The true lover is the one who on your final day opens a thousand doors.
Rumi
The quieter we become, the more we can hear.
Rumi
You are the honoured guest, Do not weep like a beggar For pieces of the world.
Rumi
In our hearts there burns a fire... That burns all veils to their root and foundation When those veils have been burned away Then the heart will understand completely. Ancient love will unfold ever-fresh forms In the heart of the Spirit, In the core of the heart.
Rumi
I lost everything i have, found myself.
Rumi
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as a plant and rose to animal, I died as an animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Rumi
Carry the burden smilingly and cheerfully, because patience is the key to victory.
Rumi
Dear soul, don't set a high value on someone before they deserve it You either lose them or ruin yourself...!
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the soul but LIGHT. Rid yourself of material needs and be set FREE.
Rumi
The Heart of the matter is Soul, nothing else.
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the river. Listen to the ocean.
Rumi
Whoever gives reverence receives reverence.
Rumi
Through love scraps of copper are turned to gold.
Rumi
Whenever we manage to love without expectations, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven.
Rumi
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Rumi
But learn this custom from the flower: silence your tongue.
Rumi
For me to praise is interrupting praise.
Rumi
