More quotes by Rumi
I have no fear to burn my mouth and throat I’m ready to drink every flame and more.
Rumi
You wander from room to room Hunting for the diamond necklace That is already around your neck!
Rumi
We carry inside us the wonders we seek outside us.
Rumi
What is planted in each person's soul will sprout.
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
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
Let's ask God to help us to self-control for one who lacks it, lacks his grace.
Rumi
I will soothe you and heal you, I will bring you roses. I too have been covered with thorns.
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant.
Rumi
Passion and desire bind your Heart. Remove the locks. Become a key, become a key . . .
Rumi
What strikes the oyster shell doesn't damage the pearl.
Rumi
This whole universe is but a drop of His Beauty!
Rumi
The world's flattery and hypocrisy is a sweet morsel: eat less of it, for it is full of fire. Its fire is hidden while its taste is manifest, but its smoke becomes visible in the end.
Rumi
Be a helpful friend, and you will become a green tree with always new fruit, always deeper journeys into love.
Rumi
Join the community of saints and know the delight of your own Soul. Enter the ruins of your Heart and Learn the Meaning of Humility.
Rumi
Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.
Rumi
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Rumi
Inside the Great Mystery that is, we don't really own anything. What is this competition we feel then, before we go, one at a time, through the same gate?
Rumi
What hurts the soul? To live without tasting the water of its own essence.
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
