More quotes by Rumi
I searched for God and found only myself. I searched for myself and found only God.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.
Rumi
I’ve been looking for a long, long time, for this thing called love, I’ve ridden comets across the sky, and I’ve looked below and above. Then one day I looked inside myself, and this is what I found, A golden sun residing there, beaming forth God’s light and sound.
Rumi
I am a child whose teacher is LOVE surely my master won't let me grow to be a fool.
Rumi
Bring the sky beneath your feet and listen to celestial music everywhere.
Rumi
The moon stays bright when it doesn't avoid the night.
Rumi
God's purpose for man is to acquire a seeing eye and an understanding heart. God gave you life and bestowed upon you his attributes eventually you will return to him. The rewards of life and devotion to God are love and inner rapture, and the capacity to receive the light of God.
Rumi
I can't stop pointing to the beauty. Every moment and place says, 'Put this design in your carpet!'
Rumi
Love’s secret is always lifting its head out from under the covers, “Here I am!”
Rumi
If words come out of the heart, they will enter the heart.
Rumi
Get yourself out of the way, and let Joy have more space.
Rumi
Why, when God's world is so big, did you fall asleep in a prison, of all places?
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence or in absence.
Rumi
You have forgotten the One who doesn't care about ownership, who doesn't try to turn a profit from every human exchange.
Rumi
You think because you understand 'one' you must also understand 'two', because one and one make two. But you must also understand 'and'.
Rumi
I have no name for what circles so perfectly.
Rumi
That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.
Rumi
Be motivated like the falcon, hunt gloriously. Be magnificent as the leopard, fight to win. Spend less time with nightingales and peacocks. One is all talk, the other only color.
Rumi
That's how you came here, like a star without a name. Move across the night sky with those anonymous lights.
Rumi
Every rose that is sweet-scented within, That rose is telling of the secrets of the Universal.
Rumi
