More quotes by Rumi
Don't look for me in a human shape, I am inside your looking.
Rumi
A pure heart, open to the Light, will be filled with the elixir of Truth.
Rumi
Although I may try to describe Love, When I experience it, I am speechless.
Rumi
God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. Remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. Don't try to end it. Be your note.
Rumi
Bring the sky beneath your feet and listen to celestial music everywhere.
Rumi
Flattery's fire is hidden. Its sweet taste is apparent, but the smoke is bound to come out at last.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
We often need to be refreshed.
Rumi
My heart is so small it's almost invisible. How can You place such big sorrows in it? Look, He answered, your eyes are even smaller, yet they behold the world.
Rumi
Have you ever gotten breathless before from a beautiful face, for i see you there, my dear.
Rumi
True beauty is a ray That springs from the sacred depths of the soul, and illuminates the body, just as life springs from the kernel of a stone and gives colour and scent to a flower.
Rumi
Why, when God's world is so big, did you fall asleep in a prison, of all places?
Rumi
This whole universe is but a drop of His Beauty!
Rumi
If there were no way into God, I would not have lain in the grave of this body so long.
Rumi
I learned that every mortal will taste death. But only some will taste life.
Rumi
Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
Rumi
Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces.
Rumi
Reason is powerless in the expression of Love. Love alone is capable of revealing the truth of Love and being a Lover. The way of our prophets is the way of Truth. If you want to live, die in Love die in Love if you want to remain alive.
Rumi
Even though you tie a hundred knots, the string remains one.
Rumi
Look at the moon in the sky, not the one in the lake.
Rumi
