More quotes by Rumi
O Seeker, pain and suffering make one aware of God.
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
Nothing I say can explain to you Divine Love Yet all of creation cannot seem to stop talking about it.
Rumi
There is a place where voices sing your beauty, A place where every breath carves your image in my soul.
Rumi
I learned that every mortal will taste death. But only some will taste life.
Rumi
Carry the burden smilingly and cheerfully, because patience is the key to victory.
Rumi
We love that s why life is full of so many wonderful gifts.
Rumi
Prayer clears the mist and brings back peace to the Soul . . .
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant.
Rumi
Whoever gives reverence receives reverence.
Rumi
Love is an endless ocean, with no beginning or end. Imagine, a suspended ocean, riding on a cushion of ancient secrets.
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did about the future. Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
I'm dominated by Love, By my passion of love for Love
Rumi
I was a tiny bug. Now a mountain. I was left behind. Now honored at the head. You healed my wounded hunger and anger, and made me a poet who sings about joy.
Rumi
Dance where you can break yourself up to pieces and totally abandon your worldly passions.
Rumi
In every religion there is love, yet love has no religion.
Rumi
Thinking gives off smoke to prove the existence of fire. A mystic sits inside the burning. There are wonderful shapes in rising smoke that imagination loves to watch. But it's a mistake to leave the fire for that filmy sight. Stay here at the flame's core.
Rumi
If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?
Rumi
Criticism polishes my mirror.
Rumi
We came whirling out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust... The stars made a circle, and in the middle, we dance.
Rumi
