More quotes by Rumi
Love is the sea where intellect drowns.
Rumi
I have no fear to burn my mouth and throat I’m ready to drink every flame and more.
Rumi
Your way begins at the other side. Become the sky. Take an axe to the prison wall. Escape. Walk out like someone suddenly born into color. Do it now.
Rumi
Half-heartedness doesn't reach into majesty. You set out to find God, but then you keep stopping for long periods at meanspirited roadhouses.
Rumi
Angels dance only with You, Beloved and only before You do I bow in adoration. You may accept me or not but I will be at your feet forever.
Rumi
You have no need to travel anywhere - journey within yourself. Enter a mine of rubies and bathe in the splendor of your own light.
Rumi
For years, copying other people, I tried to know myself. From within, I couldn't decide what to do. Unable to see, I heard my name being called. Then I walked outside.
Rumi
The message behind the words is the voice of the heart.
Rumi
Live in the nowhere that you come from even though you have got an address Here.
Rumi
What does this patch-sewing mean you ask? Eating and drinking. The heavy cloak of the body is always getting torn. You patch it with food and other ego-satisfactions.
Rumi
Within tears, find hidden laughter Seek treasures amid ruins, sincere one.
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the language-river. Listen to the ocean, and bring your talky business to an end. Traditional words are just babbling in that presence, and babbling is a substitute for sight.
Rumi
The fault is in the one who blames. Spirit sees nothing to criticize.
Rumi
If you don't try to fly and so break yourself apart, you will be broken open by death, when it's too late for all you could become.
Rumi
Since I was cut from the reedbed I have made this crying sound. Anyone separated from someone he loves understands what I say. Anyone pulled from a Source longs to go back.
Rumi
Why are you knocking at every door ? Go, knock at the door of your own heart.
Rumi
There comes a holy and transparent time when every touch of beauty opens the heart to tears. This is the time the Beloved of heaven is brought tenderly on earth. This is the time of the opening of the ROSE.
Rumi
Sometimes we plan a trip to one place, but something takes us to another
Rumi
Awe is the salve that will heal our eyes.
Rumi
The lover never despairs. For a committed heart everything is possible.
Rumi
