Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.

More quotes by Rumi
Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
Rumi
There is a window from one heart to another heart.
Rumi
Close the language-door, and open the love-window
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
LOVE is what gives joy to giving joy.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.
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
I found the Divine within my Heart.
Rumi
I want a trouble-maker for a lover, Blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame, Who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate, Who burns like fire on the rushing sea.
Rumi
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Rumi
Study me as much as you like, you will not know me, for I differ in a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.
Rumi
Lovers move like lightning and wind. No contest. Theologians mumble, rumble-dumble, necessity and free will, while lover and beloved pull themselves into each other.
Rumi
Heartsick, heartbroken - to know love is to know pain. What could be more common? Even so, each broken heart is so singular that with it we probe the divine.
Rumi
When you find yourself with the Beloved, embracing for one breath, in that moment you will find your true destiny. Alas, don't spoil this precious moment. Moments like this are very, very rare.
Rumi
Give up to grace. The ocean takes care of each wave 'til it gets to shore. You need more help than you know.
Rumi
Any wine will get you high. Judge like a king, and choose the purest, the ones unadulterated with fear, or some urgency about what's needed.
Rumi
God made the Illusion look Real and the Real an Illusion !
Rumi
Why are you so enchanted by this world, when a mine of gold lies within you?
Rumi
Every moment a taste of that beauty in our mouths, another stashed in a pocket. Impossible to say what: no cypress so handsome, no sunlight, a lonely hiddenness. Other pleasure gathers a crowd, starts a fight, lots of noise there. But soul beauty stays quiet..his amazing whereabouts unknown inside my heart.
Rumi
Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Start now.
