More quotes by Rumi
You had better run from me. My words are fire.
Rumi
Some huge work goes on growing. How could one person´s words matter? Where you walk heads pop from the ground. What is one seed head compared to you? On my death day I´ll know the answer. I have cleared this house, so that your work can, when it comes, fill every room. I slide like an empty boat pulled over the water.
Rumi
May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
Rumi
I used to read the myths of love Now I have become the mythical lover
Rumi
Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?
Rumi
Whatever you are looking for can only be found inside of you.
Rumi
No mirror ever became iron again No bread ever became wheat No ripened grape ever became sour fruit. Mature yourself and be secure from a change for the worse. Become the light.
Rumi
Leave that which is not, but appears to be. Seek that which is, but is not apparent.
Rumi
The undisciplined man doesn't wrong himself alone- he sets fire to the whole world.
Rumi
Soul of all souls, life of all life - you are That. Seen and unseen, moving and unmoving - you are That.
Rumi
We often need to be refreshed.
Rumi
Let a thousand wrangling desires become one Love.
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
There is a window from one heart to another heart.
Rumi
Suffering is a gift in its hidden mercy
Rumi
If you could leave your selfishness, you would see how you've been torturing your soul.
Rumi
If God said, 'Rumi pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,' there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, nor any act, I would not bow to.
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
Even though you tie a hundred knots, the string remains one.
Rumi
There is a community of the spirit. Join it, and feel the delight of walking in the noisy street and being the noise. Drink all your passion, and be a disgrace. Close both eyes to see with the other eye.
Rumi
