When you notice a fault in your neighbour, search for the same in yourself.
Rumi
When you see anyone complaining of such and such a person's ill-nature and bad temper, know that the complainant is bad-tempered, forasmuch as he speaks ill of that bad-tempered person, because he alone is good-tempered who is quietly forbearing towards the bad-tempered and ill-natured.
Rumi
Poverty is not for the sake of hardship. No, it is there because nothing exists but Allah. Poverty unlocks the door - what a blessed key!
Rumi
God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. Remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. Don't try to end it. Be your note.
Rumi
Love possesses seven hundred wings, and each one extends from the highest heaven to the lowest earth.
Rumi
Love is the Water of Life Everything other than love for the most beautiful God is agony of the spirit, though it be sugar- eating. What is agony of the spirit? To advance toward death without seizing hold of the Water of Life.
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
I come to YOU without ME, come to ME without YOU.
Rumi
Why struggle to open a door between us when the whole wall is an illusion?
Rumi
I should be suspicious of what I want.
Rumi
