More quotes by Rumi
Where you are, whatever your condition is Always try to be a lover.
Rumi
I am yours. Don't give myself back to me.
Rumi
There’s a morning when presence comes over your soul. You sing like a rooster in your earth-colored shape. Your heart hears and, no longer frantic, begins to dance.
Rumi
Thinking gives off smoke to prove the existence of fire. A mystic sits inside the burning. There are wonderful shapes in rising smoke that imagination loves to watch. But it's a mistake to leave the fire for that filmy sight. Stay here at the flame's core.
Rumi
Why, when God's world is so big, did you fall asleep in a prison, of all places?
Rumi
people want you to be happy, don't keep serving them your pain
Rumi
The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities.
Rumi
When you find yourself with the Beloved, embracing for one breath, in that moment you will find your true destiny. Alas, don't spoil this precious moment. Moments like this are very, very rare.
Rumi
You transform all those who are touched by You.
Rumi
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
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
Walk patiently through this troubled world, and you will find great treasure. Even though your house may be small, look within it!
Rumi
He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
Stop searching here and there, the jewels are inside YOU.
Rumi
He has afflicted you from every direction in order to pull you back to the directionless.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
You cannot learn about Love, LOVE appears on the wings of grace.
Rumi
Whoever has Heart's doors wide open, could see the Sun itself in every atom.
Rumi
Carry your baggage towards silence , when you seek the signs of the way.
Rumi
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
