You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains.

More quotes by Rumi
I am in the House of Mercy, and my heart is a place of prayer.
Rumi
There is an unseen sweetness in the stomach’s emptiness. We are lutes. When the sound box is filled, no music can come forth. When the brain and the belly burn from fasting, every moment a new song rises out of the fire. The mists clear, and a new vitality makes you spring up the steps before you . . .
Rumi
I saw grief drinking a cup of sorrow and called out, 'It tastes sweet, does it not?' 'You've caught me,' grief answered, 'and you've ruined my business. How can I sell sorrow, when you know it's a blessing?
Rumi
Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased. Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken. But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever.
Rumi
Let silence take you to the core of life.
Rumi
Drink from the presence of saints, not from those other jars.
Rumi
Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames
Rumi
The world is nothing but a moment.
Rumi

Rumi
Those who are pure in heart achieve God-consciousness they are truly and actually aware of God at the center of their being (their heart). These sanctified individuals are said to be Possessors of the Heart.
Rumi
A divine dance appears in the soul and the body at the time of peace and union.Anyone can learn the dance, just listen to the music.
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
You are as you are, an indescribable message on the air.
Rumi
Poverty is not for the sake of hardship. No, it is there because nothing exists but Allah. Poverty unlocks the door - what a blessed key!
Rumi
Love is a tree and lovers are its shade.
Rumi
Break your pitcher against a rock. We don't need any longer to haul pieces of the ocean around.
Rumi
The drum of the realization of the promise is beating, we are sweeping the road to the sky. Your joy is here today, what remains for tomorrow?
Rumi
You are not meant for crawling, so don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly.
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
Be quiet now and wait. It may be that the ocean one, the one we desire so to move into and become, desires us out here on land a little longer, going our sundry roads to the shore.
Rumi
