More quotes by Rumi
I am an ark in the swift flood of time, and my companions, a fellowship. Who throws in with us sails into light.
Rumi
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
Rumi
The pure heart is a spotless mirror in which images of infinite beauty are reflected.
Rumi
You've been walking the ocean's edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper!
Rumi
When lovers of life get ready to dance, the earth shakes and the sky trembles.
Rumi
The heart is your student, for love is the only way we learn.
Rumi
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about.
Rumi
Sit with lovers and choose their state. Do not stay long with those who are not living in the heart.
Rumi
Lovers find secret places inside this violent world where they make transactions with beauty.
Rumi
Passion makes the old medicine new: Passion lops off the bough of weariness. Passion is the elixir that renews: how can there be weariness when passion is present? Oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue: seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom.
Rumi
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire.
Rumi
When you go through a hard period, When everything seems to oppose you, ... When you feel you cannot even bear one more minute, NEVER GIVE UP! Because it is the time and place that the course will divert!
Rumi
What? Are you still pretending you are separate from the Beloved?
Rumi
The quieter we become, the more we can hear.
Rumi
In Silence there is eloquence.
Rumi
He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
Tender words we spoke to one another are sealed in the secret vaults of heaven. One day like rain, they will fall to earth and grow green all over the world.
Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
Whether you love God or you love a human being, if you love enough you will come into the presence of Love itself.
Rumi
