More quotes by 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
Break your pitcher against a rock. We don't need any longer to haul pieces of the ocean around.
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
Be soulful. Be kind. Be in love.
Rumi
Love is the cure, for your pain will keep giving birth to more pain until your eyes constantly exhale love as effortlessly as your body yields its scent.
Rumi
Every forest branch moves differently in the breeze, but as they sway they connect at the roots.
Rumi
Be motivated like the falcon, hunt gloriously. Be magnificent as the leopard, fight to win. Spend less time with nightingales and peacocks. One is all talk, the other only color.
Rumi
I drank that Wine of which the Soul is its vessel. Its ecstasy has stolen my intellect away. A Light came and kindled a Flame in the depth of my Soul. A Light so radiant that the sun orbits around it like a butterfly.
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
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces.
Rumi
Our purpose here on earth: to manifest the very nature of our spirit, which is touched by the spirit of God.
Rumi
When you're traveling, ask the traveler for advice / not someone whose lameness keeps him in one place.
Rumi
If the wine drinker has a deep gentleness in him, he will show that when drunk. But if he has hidden anger and arrogance, those appear.
Rumi
Rise up nimbly and go on your strange journey!
Rumi
Prayer clears the mist and brings back peace to the Soul . . .
Rumi
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
Rumi
Not only the thirsty seek the water, the water as well seeks the thirsty.
Rumi
There are many winds full of anger, and lust and greed. They move the rubbish around, but the solid mountain of our true nature stays where it's always been.
Rumi
You are more valuable than both heaven and earth. What else can I say? You don’t know your own worth.
Rumi
