More quotes by Rumi
There are many winds full of anger, and lust and greed. They move the rubbish around, but the solid mountain of our true nature stays where it's always been.
Rumi
Don't regret what's happened. If it's in the past, LET IT GO. Don't even remember it!
Rumi
I'm in love! Your advice, what are they? Love has poisoned me! Your remedies, what are they? I hear them shout: fast, Bind him feet! But if my heart that has gone mad! Those strings on my feet What is the point?
Rumi
The men of God are like fishes in the ocean they pop up into view on the surface here and there and everywhere, as they please.
Rumi
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!
Rumi
If you want money more than anything, you'll be bought and sold. If you have a greed for food, you'll be a loaf of bread. This is a subtle truth: Whatever you love, you are.
Rumi
If you don't try to fly and so break yourself apart, you will be broken open by death, when it's too late for all you could become.
Rumi
What is the mirror of Being? Non-being. Bring non-being as your gift, if you are not a fool.
Rumi
Not the ones speaking the same language, but the ones sharing the same feeling understand each other.
Rumi
If you love someone, you are always joined with them--in joy, in absence, in solitude, in strife.
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
These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.
Rumi
Inside any deep asking is the answering.
Rumi
You are not just the drop in the ocean. You are the mighty ocean in the drop.
Rumi
Cease looking for flowers! There blooms a garden in your own home. While you look for trinkets The treasure house awaits you in your own being.
Rumi
There's a hidden sweetness in the stomach's emptiness. We are lutes, no more, no less. If the soundbox is stuffed full of anything, no music.... When you're full of food and drink, Satan sits where your spirit should.
Rumi
Learn the alchemy true human beings know. The moment you accept what troubles you've been given the door with open.
Rumi
You the one in all, say who I am. Say I am you.
Rumi
Seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
Stay in the spiritual fire. Let it cook you.
Rumi
