More quotes by Rumi
Love asks us to enjoy our life For nothing good can come of death. Who is alive? I ask. Those who are born of love. Seek us in love itself, Seek love in us ourselves. Sometimes I venerate love, Sometimes it venerates me.
Rumi
The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you.
Rumi
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
Rumi
Are you jealous of the ocean’s generosity? Why would you refuse to give this joy to anyone? Fish don’t hold the sacred liquid in cups! They swim the huge fluid freedom.
Rumi
Don't be the rider who gallops all nightand never sees the horse that is beneath him
Rumi
Go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen.
Rumi
Don't run away from grief, o’ soul/ Look for the remedy inside the pain/ because the rose came from the thorn/ and the ruby came from a stone.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
I made an oath to myself: as long as I live as long as my soul remains in this body I won't deviate from the right way but later I looked to my left and then to my right and I saw our beloved everywhere how could I make a wrong turn?
Rumi
All my feelings have the color you desire to paint.
Rumi
Treasure is stored in the ruined places. Do not break the hearts of the poor and heartbroken people
Rumi
My religion is to be alive from 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
O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now, Be all – worlds dissolve into your stainless endless radiance, Frail living leaves burn with your brighter than cold stares – Make me your servant, your breath, your core.
Rumi
If all you can do is crawl, start crawling.
Rumi
Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.
Rumi
Listen. Make a way for yourself inside yourself. Stop looking in the other way of looking.
Rumi
Whoever travels without a guide, needs two hundred years for a two-day journey.
Rumi
O, happy the soul that saw its own faults.
Rumi
Many of the faults you see in others, dear reader, are your own nature reflected in them.
Rumi
