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?

More quotes by Rumi
There's a path from your HEART to mine.
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
Peaceful is the one who's not concerned with having more or less. Unbound by name and fame, he is free from sorrow from the world and mostly from himself.
Rumi
Your kindness cannot be said. You open doors in the sky. You ease the heart and make God's qualities visible.
Rumi
Be suspicious of what you want.
Rumi
Give up to grace. The ocean takes care of each wave 'til it gets to shore. You need more help than you know.
Rumi
Your acts of kindness are iridescent wings of divine love, which linger and continue to uplift others long after your sharing.
Rumi
We are as the flute, and the music in us is from thee we are as the mountain and the echo in us is from thee.
Rumi
Be drunk with Love, for Love is all that exists. Where is intimacy found if not in the give and take of Love.
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains.
Rumi
The meaning of poetry has no sureness of direction is like the sling, it is not under control.
Rumi
Your heart mirrors not His love, Rusty with your sins it is, Remove this rust and you shall Perceive how Glorious He is.
Rumi
You think the shadow is the substance.
Rumi
Silence is the language of God, all else is poor translation.
Rumi
Friendship of the wise is good a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend.
Rumi
Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
Beauty is the garden scent of roses, murmuring water flowing gently...Can words describe the indescribable?
Rumi
Dance where you can break yourself up to pieces and totally abandon your worldly passions.
Rumi
The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
Rumi
