More quotes by Rumi
Swim out of your little pond.
Rumi
Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
You show your worth by what you seek.
Rumi
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me.
Rumi
Smiles come best from those who weep.
Rumi
This is what love does and continues to do. It tastes like honey to adults and milk to children.
Rumi
And so it is, that both the Devil and the angelic Spirit present us with objects of desire to awaken our power of choice.
Rumi
Now is the time to unite the Soul and the world.
Rumi
I will be waiting here.... For your silence to break, For your soul to shake, For your love to wake!
Rumi
There's no one with intelligence in this town except that man over there playing with the children, the one riding the stick horse. He has keen, fiery insight and vast dignity like the night sky, but he conceals it in the madness of child's play.
Rumi
If you want money more than anything, you'll be bought and sold your whole life.
Rumi
Are you searching for your soul? Then come out of your own prison.
Rumi
I am a child whose teacher is LOVE surely my master won't let me grow to be a fool.
Rumi
I have put duality away. I have seen the two worlds are one.
Rumi
O Love, O pure deep Love, be here, be now, be all.
Rumi
Like the birds of the sea, men come from the ocean-the ocean of the soul. How could this bird, born from that sea, make his dwelling here?
Rumi
Whenever they rebuild an old building, they must first of all destroy the old one.
Rumi
Protect yourself......from your own thoughts.
Rumi
A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly. Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe. What nine months of attention does for an embryo forty early mornings will do for your gradually growing wholeness
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
