More quotes by Rumi
There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled.
Rumi
There are many languages in the world in meaning all are the same. If you break the cups, water will be unified and will flow together.
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.
Rumi
Awake asleep ought to be with us - So he may see dreams in wakefulness.
Rumi
Look at Love with the eyes of your Heart.

Rumi
Your defects are the ways that glory gets manifested ... That's where the Light enters you.
Rumi
What does this patch-sewing mean you ask? Eating and drinking. The heavy cloak of the body is always getting torn. You patch it with food and other ego-satisfactions.
Rumi

Rumi
When the ocean surges, don't let me just hear it. Let it splash inside my chest!
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
Come, even if you have broken your vow one thousand times, come, yet again, come, come.
Rumi
Dancing is not just getting up painlessly, like a leaf blown on the wind dancing is when you tear your heart out and rise out of your body to hang suspended between the worlds.
Rumi
I am an ark in the swift flood of time, and my companions, a fellowship. Who throws in with us sails into light.
Rumi
Lovers are patient and know that the moon needs time to become full.
Rumi
God writes spiritual Mysteries on our heart, where they wait silently for discovery.
Rumi
There's a path from your HEART to mine.
Rumi
Close your eyes, fall in Love, stay there.
Rumi
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
