More quotes by Rumi
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Rumi
I belong to the beloved. Have seen the two worlds as one and that one call to and know. ...First, Last, Outer, Inner, only that breath breathing. HUMAN BEING.
Rumi
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
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
My heart is so small it's almost invisible. How can You place such big sorrows in it? Look, He answered, your eyes are even smaller, yet they behold the world.
Rumi
There’s a morning when presence comes over your soul. You sing like a rooster in your earth-colored shape. Your heart hears and, no longer frantic, begins to dance.
Rumi
The core of the seen and unseen universe smiles, but remember smiles come best from those who weep. Lightning, then the rain-laughter.
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
Oh! joy for he who has escaped from this world of perfumes and color! For beyond these colors and these perfumes, these are other colors in the heart and the soul.
Rumi
Joy lives concealed in grief.
Rumi
When lovers of life get ready to dance, the earth shakes and the sky trembles.
Rumi
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as a plant and rose to animal, I died as an animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Rumi
Awake asleep ought to be with us - So he may see dreams in wakefulness.
Rumi
Your real country is where you're heading, not where you are.
Rumi
If you could leave your selfishness, you would see how you've been torturing your soul.
Rumi
Intellect in its effort to explain Love got stuck in the mud like an ass. Love alone could explain love and loving.
Rumi
Listen to the unstruck sounds, and what sifts through that music.
Rumi
You are the honoured guest, Do not weep like a beggar For pieces of the world.
Rumi
Cease looking for flowers! There blooms a garden in your own home. While you look for trinkets The treasure house awaits you in your own being.
Rumi
