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
Only from the heart can you touch the sky.
Rumi
Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.
Rumi
All loves are a bridge to Divine love. Yet, those who have not had a taste of it do not know!

Rumi
God's purpose for man is to acquire a seeing eye and an understanding heart. God gave you life and bestowed upon you his attributes eventually you will return to him. The rewards of life and devotion to God are love and inner rapture, and the capacity to receive the light of God.
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
True beauty is a ray That springs from the sacred depths of the soul, and illuminates the body, just as life springs from the kernel of a stone and gives colour and scent to a flower.
Rumi
If you wish to shine like day, burn up the night of self-existence. Dissolve in the Being who is everything.
Rumi
The world is a mirror, an imaging of Love's perfection.
Rumi
If in thirst you drink water from a cup, you see God in it. Those who are not in love with God will see only their own faces in it.
Rumi
Do not worry if all the candles in the world flicker and die. We have the spark that starts the fire.
Rumi
Intellect in its effort to explain Love got stuck in the mud like an ass. Love alone could explain love and loving.
Rumi
If you dig a pit for others to fall into, you will fall into it yourself.
Rumi
God writes spiritual Mysteries on our heart, where they wait silently for discovery.
Rumi
In Winter the bare boughs that seem to sleep Work covertly, preparing for their Spring.
Rumi
Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames
Rumi
Some huge work goes on growing. How could one person´s words matter? Where you walk heads pop from the ground. What is one seed head compared to you? On my death day I´ll know the answer. I have cleared this house, so that your work can, when it comes, fill every room. I slide like an empty boat pulled over the water.
Rumi
