Keep digging your well. Water is there somewhere.
Rumi
Do not worry if all the candles in the world flicker and die. We have the spark that starts the fire.
Rumi
Whenever they rebuild an old building, they must first of all destroy the old one.
Rumi
This is what love does and continues to do. It tastes like honey to adults and milk to children.
Rumi
There's a hidden sweetness in the stomach's emptiness. We are lutes, no more, no less. If the soundbox is stuffed full of anything, no music.... When you're full of food and drink, Satan sits where your spirit should.
Rumi
Ignorance is God's prison. Knowing is God's palace
Rumi
I never really cared for the things of this world. It was the glow of Your Presence that filled it with beauty.
Rumi
I have put duality away. I have seen the two worlds are one.
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
Whatever you are looking for can only be found inside of you.
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
Lovers don't meet in the end, they are in each other forever.
Rumi
Knock, And He'll open the door Vanish, And He'll make you shine like the sun Fall, And He'll raise you to the heavens Become nothing, And He'll turn you into everything.
Rumi
When someone beats a rug, the blows are not against the rug, but against the dust in it.
Rumi
The meaning of poetry has no sureness of direction is like the sling, it is not under control.
Rumi
You cannot learn about Love, LOVE appears on the wings of grace.
Rumi
Wherever water flows, life flourishes: wherever tears fall, Divine mercy is shown.
Rumi
The ground submits to the sky and suffers whatever comes. Tell me, is the Earth worse for giving in like that?
Rumi
Let the beauty we love do what we do.
Rumi
You try to be faithful And sometimes you're cruel. You are mine. Then, you leave. Without you, I can't cope. And when you take the lead, I become your footstep. Your absence leaves a void. Without you, I can't cope. You have disturbed my sleep, You have wrecked my image. You have set me apart. Without you, I can't cope.
Rumi
