More quotes by 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
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
What shall I say, O Muslims, I know not myself, I am neither a Christian, nor a Jew, nor a Zoroastrian, nor a Muslim.
Rumi
Even though you're not equipped, keep searching: equipment isn't necessary on the way to the Lord.
Rumi
Raise your words, not your voice.
Rumi
Remember. The way you make love is the way God will be with you.
Rumi
Our purpose here on earth: to manifest the very nature of our spirit, which is touched by the spirit of God.
Rumi
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skull into a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do!
Rumi
Tie two birds together. They will not be able to fly, even though they now have four wings.
Rumi
You run back and forth listening for unusual events, peering into the faces of travelers. Why are you looking at me like a madman? I have lost a friend. Please forgive me.
Rumi
Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.
Rumi
There is a city in which you find everything you desire-handsome people, pleasures, ornaments of every kind-all that the natural person craves. However, you cannot find a single wise person there.
Rumi
Such a strong thing LOVE, changes everything.
Rumi
What strange beings we are! That sitting in hell at the bottom of the dark, we're afraid of our own immortality.
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
If you desire healing, let yourself fall ill let yourself fall ill.
Rumi
Ignorance is God's prison. Knowing is God's palace
Rumi
Load the ship and set out. No one knows for certain whether the vessel will sink or reach the harbor. Cautious people say, 'I'll do nothing until I can be sure.' Merchants know better. If you do nothing, you lose. Don't be one of those merchants who wont risk the ocean.
Rumi
Awe is the salve that will heal our eyes.
Rumi
The wealth within you, your essence, is your kingdom.
Rumi
