More quotes by Rumi
I honor those who try to rid themselves of any lying, who empty the self and have only clear being there.
Rumi
Some nights stay up till dawn, as the moon sometimes does for the sun. Be a full bucket pulled up the dark way of a well, then lifted out into light.
Rumi
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
Lovers move like lightning and wind. No contest. Theologians mumble, rumble-dumble, necessity and free will, while lover and beloved pull themselves into each other.
Rumi
Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
Rumi
Empathy is even better than talking in one language
Rumi
I made an oath to myself: as long as I live as long as my soul remains in this body I won't deviate from the right way but later I looked to my left and then to my right and I saw our beloved everywhere how could I make a wrong turn?
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
This is the essence of all sciences - that you should know who you will be when the Day of Reckoning arrives.
Rumi
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Rumi
Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.
Rumi
Look at these worlds spinning out of nothingness. That is within your power.
Rumi
The Past, the Future, O dear, is from you you should regard both these as one.
Rumi
Why should I be weary when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
Rumi
Nightingales are put in cages because their songs give pleasure. Whoever heard of keeping a crow?
Rumi
When something goes wrong, accuse yourself first. Even the wisdom of Plato or Solomon can wobble and go blind
Rumi
Tend to your vital heart, and all that you worry about will be solved.
Rumi
I am yours. Don't give myself back to me.
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the river. Listen to the ocean.
Rumi
If your thought is a rose, you are a rose garden and if it is a thistle, you are fuel for the fire.
Rumi
