More quotes by Rumi
Speak little, learn the words of eternity. Go beyond your tangled thoughts and find the splendor of paradise.
Rumi
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
I came to this earth so that I could find my way back to my Beloved.
Rumi
Every forest branch moves differently in the breeze, but as they sway they connect at the roots.
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
Rumi
I want that love that moved the mountains. I want that love that split the ocean. I want that love that made the winds tremble. I want that love that roared like thunder. I want that love that will raise the dead. I want that love that lifts us to ecstasy. I want that love that is the silence of eternity.
Rumi
The spirit is so near that you can't see it! But reach for it... don't be a jar, full of water, whose rim is always dry. Don't be the rider who gallops all night and never sees the horse that is beneath him.
Rumi
A white flower grows in the quietness. Let your tongue become that flower.
Rumi
Take sips of this pure wine being poured. Don't mind that you've been given a dirty cup.
Rumi
I belong to the beloved. Have seen the two worlds as one and that one call to and know. ...First, Last, Outer, Inner, only that breath breathing. HUMAN BEING.
Rumi
If you want to win hearts, sow the seeds of Love. If you want heaven, stop scattering thorns on the road.
Rumi
Let silence take you to the core of life.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.
Rumi
Someone who goes with a half a loaf of bread to a small place that fits like a nest around him, someone who wants no more, who is not himself longed for by anyone else. He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
When you eventually see through the veils to how things really are, you will keep saying again and again, this is certainly not like we thought it was.
Rumi
A pure heart, open to the Light, will be filled with the elixir of Truth.
Rumi
This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. Welcome and entertain them all!
Rumi
In the garden I see only your face From trees and blossoms I inhale only your fragrance.
Rumi
There is a field beyond all notions of right and wrong. Come, meet me there.
Rumi
