You could string a hundred endless days together, My soul would find no comfort from this pain. You laugh at my tale? You may be educated But you haven’t learned to love till you’re insane

More quotes by Rumi
Love is an endless ocean, with no beginning or end. Imagine, a suspended ocean, riding on a cushion of ancient secrets.
Rumi
Carry the burden smilingly and cheerfully, because patience is the key to victory.
Rumi
The source is within you. And this whole world is springing up from it.
Rumi
Stop looking for something out there and begin seeing within.
Rumi
God does not look at your outer forms, but at the love within your love.
Rumi
The drum of the realization of the promise is beating, we are sweeping the road to the sky. Your joy is here today, what remains for tomorrow?
Rumi
Just as the heart becomes carefree in a place of green, growing plants, goodwill and kindness are born when our souls enter happiness.
Rumi
Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing, where something might be planted, a seed, possibly, from the Absolute.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
In every religion there is love, yet love has no religion.
Rumi
Heartsick, heartbroken - to know love is to know pain. What could be more common? Even so, each broken heart is so singular that with it we probe the divine.
Rumi
What hurts the soul? To live without tasting the water of its own essence.
Rumi
This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. Welcome and entertain them all!
Rumi
Everything in the universe is within you. Ask all from yourself.
Rumi
Every need brings in what's needed. Pain bears its cure like a child.
Rumi
This is how it always is when I finish a poem. A great silence overcomes me and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.
Rumi
There is an unseen sweetness in the stomach’s emptiness. We are lutes. When the sound box is filled, no music can come forth. When the brain and the belly burn from fasting, every moment a new song rises out of the fire. The mists clear, and a new vitality makes you spring up the steps before you . . .
Rumi
We are pain and what cures pain, both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours. I want to hold you close like a lute, so that we can cry out with loving. Would you rather throw stones at a mirror? I am your mirror and here are the stones.
Rumi
And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?
Rumi
Whatever posessions and objects of its desires the lower self may obtain, it hangs on to them, refusing to let them go out of greed for more, or out of fear of poverty and need.
Rumi
