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.

More quotes by Rumi
Love alone can explain the mysteries of Love.
Rumi
Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world. The forms may change, yet the essence remains the same.
Rumi
Since I was cut from the reedbed I have made this crying sound. Anyone separated from someone he loves understands what I say. Anyone pulled from a Source longs to go back.
Rumi
Light up the fire of love inside and blaze the thoughts away.
Rumi
My lips got lost on the way to the kiss - that's how drunk I was.
Rumi
Kill the cow of your ego as quickly as you can, so that your inner spirit can come to life and attain true awareness.
Rumi
There is an original inside me.
Rumi
Sometimes the shadow stays next to the Light. Sometimes it disappears into the Light
Rumi
Love is the common denominator that unites all people whatever religion they are.
Rumi
The agony of lovers burns with the fire of passion. Lovers leave traces of where they've been. The wailing of broken hearts is the doorway to God.
Rumi
Heartsick, heartbroken - to know love is to know pain. What could be more common? Even so, each broken heart is so singular that with it we probe the divine.
Rumi
I saw grief drinking a cup of sorrow and called out, 'It tastes sweet, does it not?' 'You've caught me,' grief answered, 'and you've ruined my business. How can I sell sorrow, when you know it's a blessing?
Rumi
My dear heart, never think you are better than others. Listen to their sorrows with compassion. If you want peace, don't harbor bad thoughts, do not gossip and don't teach what you do not know.
Rumi
Move, but don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away.
Rumi
Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
Rumi
Love itself describes its own perfection. Be speechless and listen.
Rumi
Do you think I know what I'm doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it's writing, or the ball can guess where it's going next.
Rumi
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
Rumi
There goes a river dragging an ocean behind it.
Rumi
