Whoever is sitting with friends is in the midst of a flower garden, though he may be in the fire. Whoever sits with an enemy is in the fire, even though he is in the midst of a garden.

More quotes by Rumi
The feelings trembled and flapped in his chest like a bird newly put in a cage.
Rumi
I have no companion but Love, no beginning, no end, no dawn. The Soul calls from within me: 'You, ignorant of the way of Love, set Me free.'
Rumi
Body is not veiled from soul, neither soul from body, Yet no man hath ever seen a soul.
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
Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.
Rumi
Why set your heart on a piece ofearth,seek out the source which shines forever.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the SOUL but LIGHT.
Rumi
Dance, and make joyous the love around you. Dance, and your veils which hide the Light shall swirl in a heap at your feet.
Rumi
We may know who we are or we may not. We may be Muslims, Jews or Christians but until our hearts become the mould for every heart we will see only our differences.
Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
Sometimes the shadow stays next to the Light. Sometimes it disappears into the Light
Rumi
In Silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves.
Rumi
There is a sun within every person.
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
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
Do you think I know what I'm doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it's writing, or the ball can guess where it's going next.
Rumi
I am in the House of Mercy, and my heart is a place of prayer.
Rumi
Christian, Jew, Muslim, shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the mystery, unique and not to be judged.
Rumi
Keep silent, because the world of silence is a vast fullness
Rumi
It was our Creator who led us through the stages of evolution, from the animal state to the human. His purpose was to make us intelligent and aware, so that we might know Him.
Rumi
