More quotes by Rumi
All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
Rumi
Be kind and honest, and harmful poisons will turn sweet inside you.
Rumi
In truth everything and everyone Is a shadow of the Beloved, And our seeking is His seeking And our words are His words... We search for Him here and there, while looking right at Him. Sitting by His side, we ask: 'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'
Rumi
To me nothing in the world is as precious as a genuine smile, especially from a child.
Rumi
The moon stays bright when it doesn't avoid the night.
Rumi
The angel is free because of his knowledge, the beast because of his ignorance. Between the two remains the son of man to struggle.
Rumi
What is the mirror of Being? Non-being. Bring non-being as your gift, if you are not a fool.
Rumi
Half-heartedness doesn't reach into majesty. You set out to find God, but then you keep stopping for long periods at meanspirited roadhouses.
Rumi
The gates made of light swing open. You see in.
Rumi
My religion is to be alive from LOVE.
Rumi
Turning toward what you deeply love saves you
Rumi
Learn the alchemy true human beings know. The moment you accept what troubles you've been given the door with open.
Rumi
Get yourself out of the way, and let Joy have more space.
Rumi
The whole business of love is to drown in the sea.
Rumi
We came whirling out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust... The stars made a circle, and in the middle, we dance.
Rumi
The source is within you. And this whole world is springing up from it.
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
If you don't try to fly and so break yourself apart, you will be broken open by death, when it's too late for all you could become.
Rumi
Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
