More quotes by Rumi
The breath of the flute player: does it belong to the flute?
Rumi
Many of the faults you see in others, dear reader, are your own nature reflected in them.
Rumi
Each moment from all sides rushes to us the call to love. We are running to contemplate its vast green field. Do you want to come with us?
Rumi
Lovers are patient and know that the moon needs time to become full.
Rumi
The lovers of God never run out of patience, for they know that time is needed for the crescent moon to become full.
Rumi
Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant. So completely mixed with you, I may look separate. So out in the open, I appear hidden. So silent, because I am constantly talking with you.
Rumi
By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.
Rumi
We may know who we are or we may not. We may be Muslims, Jews or Christians but until our hearts become the mould for every heart we will see only our differences.
Rumi
In truth everything and everyone Is a shadow of the Beloved, And our seeking is His seeking And our words are His words... We search for Him here and there, while looking right at Him. Sitting by His side, we ask: 'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'
Rumi
One of the marvels of the world: The sight of a soul sitting in prison with the key in its hand.
Rumi
Daylight, full of small dancing particles and the one great turning, our souls are dancing with you, without feet, they dance. Can you see them when I whisper in your ear? All day and night, music, a quiet, bright reedsong. If it fades, we fade.
Rumi
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.
Rumi
Find the sweetness in your own heart, then you may find the sweetness in every heart.
Rumi
Knowest thou not the beauty of thine own face? Quit this temper that leads thee to war with thyself.
Rumi
Anyone who genuinely and consistently with both hands look for something, will find it.
Rumi
Whenever Beauty looks, Love is also there.
Rumi
You are the Soul and the medicine for what wounds the Soul.
Rumi
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
Light up the fire of love inside and blaze the thoughts away.
Rumi
