More quotes by Rumi
Whoever's calm and sensible is insane!
Rumi
Where you are, whatever your condition is Always try to be a lover.
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
I want a heart which is split, part by part, because of the pain of separation from God, so that I might explain my longing and complaint to it.
Rumi
Your earthly lover can be charming and coquettish but never very faithful. The true lover is the one who on your final day opens a thousand doors.
Rumi
Bring the sky beneath your feet and listen to celestial music everywhere.
Rumi
Soul of all souls, life of all life - you are That. Seen and unseen, moving and unmoving - you are That. The road that leads to the City is endless Go without head and feet and you'll already be there. What else could you be? - you are That.
Rumi
The rose does best as a rose. Lilies make the best lilies. And look! You - the best you around!
Rumi
In his mind she lay at his lap with his fingers gliding thru her straight beautiful hair. He smiles and says your beauty lights up everything around you.
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
Brother, stand the pain. Escape the poison of your impulses. The sky will bow to your beauty, if you do. Learn to light the candle. Rise with the sun. Turn away from the cave of your sleeping. That way a thorn expands to a rose.
Rumi
What can I do my friends, if I do not know? I am neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim nor Hindu. What can I do? What can I do? Not of the East, nor of the West, Nor of the land, nor of the sea, Not of nature's essence, nor of circling heavens. What could I be?
Rumi
When you notice a fault in your neighbour, search for the same in yourself.
Rumi
Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.
Rumi
Your name is upon my tongue your image is in my sight your memory is in my heart where can I send these words that I write ?
Rumi
My lips got lost on the way to the kiss - that's how drunk I was.
Rumi
All my feelings have the color you desire to paint.
Rumi
The universe and the light of the stars come through me.
Rumi
The Prophets accept all agony and trust it For the water has never feared the fire.
Rumi
Those doing soul work, who want the searing truth more than solace or applause, know each other right away. Those who want something else turn and take a seat in another room. Soul-makers find each other’s company.
Rumi
