And he misses her Like a wind starved sail He sits knowing what direction to go But the current keeps pulling him Down river.

More quotes by Rumi
It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.
Rumi
True beauty is a ray that springs from the sacred depths of the soul.
Rumi
There's a path from your HEART to mine.
Rumi
LOVE and LOVER live in Eternity. Other desires are substitutes for that way of being.
Rumi
I am so happy, I cannot be contained in the world But like a spirit, I am hidden from the eyes of the world.
Rumi
Let the beauty we love do what we do.
Rumi
I lost my hat while gazing at the moon, and then I lost my mind.
Rumi
A SEEING eye is better than three hundred blind men's: The eye can distinguish pearls from pebbles.
Rumi
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his hear.
Rumi
All loves are a bridge to Divine love. Yet, those who have not had a taste of it do not know!
Rumi
For years, copying other people, I tried to know myself. From within, I couldn't decide what to do. Unable to see, I heard my name being called. Then I walked outside.
Rumi
There is an unseen sweetness in the stomach’s emptiness. We are lutes. When the sound box is filled, no music can come forth. When the brain and the belly burn from fasting, every moment a new song rises out of the fire. The mists clear, and a new vitality makes you spring up the steps before you . . .
Rumi
If God said, 'Rumi pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,' there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, nor any act, I would not bow to.
Rumi
The Past, the Future, O dear, is from you you should regard both these as one.
Rumi
You are a fountain of the sun's light. I am a willow shadow on the ground. You make my raggedness silky.
Rumi
The pure heart is a spotless mirror in which images of infinite beauty are reflected.
Rumi
I was there in the beginning and I was the spirit of love.
Rumi
Sometimes you hear a voice through the door calling you... This turning toward what you deeply love saves you.
Rumi
I am your own voice echoing off the walls of God
Rumi
I said, O Love, tell me this: Does the Lord know you are treating me this way? Love said to me, yes He does, just be totally… totally… silent
Rumi
