All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.

More quotes by Rumi
But meditate now on steadfastness and clarity, and let those be the wings that lift and soar through the celestial spheres.
Rumi
We can't find the truth listening to our own voice's echo. We can find ourselves only in someone's mirror
Rumi
Give yourself completely to the one you call God. If you are not doing it you are wasting your time here.
Rumi
Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only appears in the roots.
Rumi
I found the Divine within my Heart.
Rumi
I look into your eyes & see the universe not yet born.
Rumi
Let lovers be crazy, disgraceful and wild Those who fret about such things Aren’t in love.
Rumi
Love itself describes its own perfection. Be speechless and listen.
Rumi
Go to the well of deep Love inside each of Us.
Rumi
Lovers don't meet in the end, they are in each other forever.
Rumi
If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Rumi
Doubt is a precipice on the way to God. Blessed is he who is freed from its bonds. He who fares without any doubt, adhere to his footprints if you do not know the way. Cleave to the footprints of the deer and advance with care that you may reach the musk-gland. By means of such trekking, even if you walk on fire, you will reach the luminous peak.
Rumi
Get yourself out of the way, and let Joy have more space.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
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
There is a path from me to you that I am constantly looking for.
Rumi
Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
Rumi
All religions, all this singing, one song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. The sun’s light looks a little different on this wall than it does on that wall, and a lot different on this other one, but it’s still one light.
Rumi
I used to read the myths of love Now I have become the mythical lover
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did about the future. Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
