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
I grow silent. Dear soul, you speak.
Rumi
Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
Rumi
What was said to the rose that made it open, was said to me, here in my chest.
Rumi
Hear from the heart wordless mysteries.
Rumi
Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased. Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken. But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever.
Rumi
Let your throat-song be clear and strong enough to make an emperor fall full-length suppliant, at the door.
Rumi
Whoever has Heart's doors wide open, could see the Sun itself in every atom.
Rumi
Why, when God's world is so big, did you fall asleep in a prison, of all places?
Rumi

Empathy is even better than talking in one language
Rumi
A Candle never Loses any of its Light while Lighting up another candle.
Rumi
When inward tenderness finds the secret hurt, pain itself will crack the rock and Ah! Let the soul emerge.
Rumi
Whatever lifts the corners of your mouth, trust that
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
Don’t wait any longer. Dive in the ocean, Leave and let the sea be you.
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
When one sense perceives the hidden, the invisible world becomes apparent to the whole.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the soul but LIGHT. Rid yourself of material needs and be set FREE.
Rumi
