More quotes by Rumi
You have been hiding so long aimlessly drifting in the sea of my love Even so You have always been connected to me Connected, revealed in the known in the unmanifest I am life itself
Rumi

Physical existence is so cramped.We grow old and bent over like embryos.Nine months passesit is time to be born. The lamb wants to graze green daylight. There are ways of being born twice,of coming to where you fly,not individually like birds, but as the sun moves with his bride,sincerity.
Rumi
To live without you is to be robbed of love and what is life without it? To live without you is death to me, my love but some call it life.
Rumi
Love alone can explain the mysteries of Love.
Rumi
At every moment, Love's voice talks to us from left and from right. All we have to do is to know how to listen.
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
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
Everything about yesterday has gone with yesterday. Today, it is needed to say new things.
Rumi
