More quotes by Rumi
In our hearts there burns a fire... That burns all veils to their root and foundation When those veils have been burned away Then the heart will understand completely. Ancient love will unfold ever-fresh forms In the heart of the Spirit, In the core of the heart.
Rumi
Love is the house of God and you are living in that house.
Rumi
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Love's nationality is separate from all other religions, The lover's religion and nationality is the Beloved (God). The lover's cause is separate from all other causes Love is the astrolabe of God's mysteries.
Rumi
He whose intellect overcomes his lust is higher than the angels he whose lust overcomes his intelligence is less than an animal.
Rumi
Hear from the heart wordless mysteries.

Rumi
You’re a song, a wished-for song.
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
I never really cared for the things of this world. It was the glow of Your Presence that filled it with beauty.
Rumi
A pen went scribbling along. When it tried to write love, it broke.
Rumi
In order to understand the dance one must be still. And in order to truly understand stillness one must dance.
Rumi
Many prayers are declined because of the rank odor of a corrupt heart, rising through the beautiful words. Let the words be wrong but the meaning right. . . . That flawed utterance is dearer to God!
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
I have no name for what circles so perfectly.
Rumi
Submit to a daily practice. Your loyalty to that is a ring at the door. Keep knocking, and the joy inside will eventually open a window and look out to see who's there.
Rumi
