This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away.

More quotes by Rumi
I am bewildered by the magnificence of your beauty and wish to see you with a hundred eyes . . . I am in the house of mercy, and my heart is a place of prayer.
Rumi
They say there is a doorway from heart to heart, but what is the use of a door when there are no walls?
Rumi
God does not look at your outer forms, but at the love within your love.
Rumi
Reason is powerless in the expression of Love. Love alone is capable of revealing the truth of Love and being a Lover. The way of our prophets is the way of Truth. If you want to live, die in Love die in Love if you want to remain alive.
Rumi
When someone critises or disagrees with you, a small ant of hatred and antagonism is born in your heart. If you do not squash that ant at once, it might grow into a snake, or even a dragon.
Rumi
Happy, not from anything that happens. Warm, not from fire or a hot bath. Light, I register zero on a scale.
Rumi
Sometimes in order to help He makes us cry Happy the eye that sheds tears for His sake Fortunate the heart that burns for His sake Laughter always follow tears Blessed are those who understand Life blossoms wherever water flows Where tears are shed divine mercy is shown
Rumi
There is a sun within every person.
Rumi
From the Distance You only See My Light Come closer and You will Know that I Am You.
Rumi
There’s nothing left of me. I’m like a ruby held up to the sunrise. Is it still a stone, or a world made of redness? It has no resistance to sunlight.
Rumi
You’re a song, a wished-for song.
Rumi
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
Let's ask God to help us to self-control for one who lacks it, lacks his grace.
Rumi
What you have despised in yourself as a thorn opens into a rose.
Rumi
Everything in the universe is a pitcher brimming with wisdom and beauty.
Rumi
And patience flees my heart, And reason flees my mind. Oh, how drunk can I get to be, Without your love's security?
Rumi
Inside any deep asking is the answering.
Rumi
May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
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
I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul.
Rumi
