When you are with everyone but me, you're with no one. When you are with no one but me, you're with everyone. Instead of being so bound up with everyone, be everyone. When you become that many, you're nothing. Empty.

More quotes by Rumi
Love is the bridge between you and everything.
Rumi
Your radiance shines in every atom of creation yet our petty desires keep it hidden.
Rumi
In this life many demolitions are actually renovations.
Rumi
You are the honoured guest, Do not weep like a beggar For pieces of the world.
Rumi
On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion.
Rumi
The love religion is all that is written here.
Rumi
Innumerable changes of moods are yours, and they are uncontrolled by you. If you knew their origin, you would be able to dominate them. If you cannot localize your own changes, how can you localize that which formed you?
Rumi
Know the true definition of yourself. That is essential. Then, when you know your own definition, flee from it.
Rumi
Stars burn clear all night till dawn. Do that yourself, and a spring will rise in the dark with water your deepest thirst is for.
Rumi
Dance where you can break yourself up to pieces and totally abandon your worldly passions.
Rumi
Concentrate on the Essence, concentrate on the Light.
Rumi
Do you think I know what I'm doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it's writing, or the ball can guess where it's going next.
Rumi
Whoever travels without a guide, needs two hundred years for a two-day journey.
Rumi
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
For the thirst to possess your love, Is worth my blood a hundred times.
Rumi
Love is a madman, working his wild schemes, tearing off his clothes, running through the mountains...
Rumi
Know that the outward form passes away, but the world of reality remains forever. How long will you play at loving the shape of the jug? Leave the jug go, seek the water!
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
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
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
