Paradise is surrounded by what we dislike the fires of hell are surrounded by what we desire.

More quotes by Rumi
Whatever you know, or don’t - only Love is real.
Rumi
All religions, all this singing, one song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. The sun’s light looks a little different on this wall than it does on that wall, and a lot different on this other one, but it’s still one light.
Rumi
Silence is the language of God, all else is poor translation.
Rumi
Whenever Beauty looks, Love is also there Whenever beauty shows a rosy cheek Love lights Her fire from that flame. When beauty dwells in the dark folds of night Love comes and finds a heart entangled in tresses. Beauty and Love are as body and soul. Beauty is the mine, Love is the diamond.
Rumi
Come into my eyes, and look at me through them, for I have chosen a home far beyond what eyes can see.
Rumi
Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not of the East, nor of the West.... My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Rumi
Never lose hope, my heart, miracles dwell in the invisible. If the whole world turns against you keep your eyes on the Friend.
Rumi
We can't find the truth listening to our own voice's echo. We can find ourselves only in someone's mirror
Rumi
...one cannot lodge in if.
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence or in absence.
Rumi
Clean out your ears, don't listen for what you already know.
Rumi
Whoever is loved is beautiful, but the opposite is not true, that whoever is beautiful is loved.
Rumi
The garden of the world has no limits except in your mind. Its presence is more beautiful than the stars with more clarity than the polished mirror of your heart.
Rumi
That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.
Rumi
There is a Soul within the Soul. Seek it out. There is a Treasure in your mountain. Seek it Out. A mystic in motion, if that's what you are, don't seek out there seek inside.
Rumi
Regard a king as someone unconcerned with kingship.
Rumi
Disharmony prevails when you confuse Lust with LOVE, while the distance between the two is endless!
Rumi
Are you jealous of the ocean’s generosity? Why would you refuse to give this joy to anyone? Fish don’t hold the sacred liquid in cups! They swim the huge fluid freedom.
Rumi
Load the ship and set out. No one knows for certain whether the vessel will sink or reach the harbor. Cautious people say, 'I'll do nothing until I can be sure.' Merchants know better. If you do nothing, you lose. Don't be one of those merchants who wont risk the ocean.
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
