More quotes by Rumi
Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison When the door is so wide open?
Rumi
You live in my heart where no one sees you but I do. That vision becomes this art.
Rumi
Awake asleep ought to be with us - So he may see dreams in wakefulness.
Rumi
Never be without remembrance of Him, for His remembrance gives strength and wings to the bird of the Spirit.
Rumi
Tie two birds together. They will not be able to fly, even though they now have four wings.
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
We are tasting the taste of eternity this minute.
Rumi
Love is a tree and lovers are its shade.
Rumi
Load the ship and set out. No one knows for certain whether the vessel will sink or reach the harbor. Cautious people say, 'I'll do nothing until I can be sure.' Merchants know better. If you do nothing, you lose. Don't be one of those merchants who wont risk the ocean.
Rumi
LOVE comes of its own free will, it can't be learned in any school!
Rumi
Lovers don't meet in the end, they are in each other forever.
Rumi
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire.
Rumi
Keep silent, because the world of silence is a vast fullness
Rumi
Gamble everything for love, if you are a true human being. If not, leave this gathering. Half-heartedness doesn’t reach into majesty.
Rumi
What you are seeking is also seeking you.
Rumi
We often need to be refreshed.
Rumi
The same wind that uproots trees makes the grass shine. The lordly wind loves the weakness and the lowness of grasses. Never brag of being strong. The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are. It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves. It leaves the leaves alone.
Rumi
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
Rumi
There is something to be said for anyone who sits alone with dignity and silently begs for God.
Rumi
You are the fountain of the sun. I'm the shadow of a willow. You fall upon my forehead. I melt. You slip into my heart. It spills open. You surround me with such sweetness. I make it my home.
Rumi
