Be motivated like the falcon, hunt gloriously. Be magnificent as the leopard, fight to win. Spend less time with nightingales and peacocks. One is all talk, the other only color.

More quotes by Rumi
The ground submits to the sky and suffers whatever comes. Tell me, is the Earth worse for giving in like that?
Rumi
Are you jealous of the ocean’s generosity? Why would you refuse to give this joy to anyone? Fish don’t hold the sacred liquid in cups! They swim the huge fluid freedom.
Rumi
Any wine will get you high. Judge like a king, and choose the purest, the ones unadulterated with fear, or some urgency about what's needed.
Rumi
There is something to be said for anyone who sits alone with dignity and silently begs for God.
Rumi
There is a Soul within the Soul. Seek it out. There is a Treasure in your mountain. Seek it Out. A mystic in motion, if that's what you are, don't seek out there seek inside.
Rumi
What matters is how quickly you do what your soul directs.
Rumi
Wherever water flows, life flourishes: wherever tears fall, Divine mercy is shown.

Anyone who knows me, should learn to know me again For I am like the Moon, you will see me with new face everyday.
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
Longing is the core of mystery. Longing itself brings the cure. The only rule is, suffer the pain. Your desires must be disciplined And what you want to happen in time, sacrificed.
Rumi
It is Love that gives joy to happiness.
Rumi
And patience flees my heart, And reason flees my mind. Oh, how drunk can I get to be, Without your love's security?
Rumi
There is a life in you, search that life, search the secret jewel in the mountain of your body.
Rumi
You're not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.
Rumi
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
From the Distance You only See My Light Come closer and You will Know that I Am You.
Rumi
If you # love love, look for yourself.
Rumi
Happy is the moment we sit together, with two forms, with two faces, yet one soul. You and I.
Rumi
One of the marvels of the world: The sight of a soul sitting in prison with the key in its hand.
