All religions, all this singing, one song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. The sun’s light looks a little different on this wall than it does on that wall, and a lot different on this other one, but it’s still one light.

More quotes by Rumi
The spirit is so near that you can't see it! But reach for it... don't be a jar, full of water, whose rim is always dry. Don't be the rider who gallops all night and never sees the horse that is beneath him.
Rumi
I lost everything i have, found myself.
Rumi
Today, let us swim wildly, joyously in gratitude.
Rumi
I looked for God. I went to a temple and I didn't find him there. Then I went to a church and I didn't find him there. The I went to a mosque and I didn't find him there. Then finally I looked in my heart and there he was.
Rumi

Rumi
Why should I be weary when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
Rumi
Keep silence, be mute. If you have not yet become the tongue of GOD, be an ear!
Rumi
If God said, 'Rumi pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,' there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, nor any act, I would not bow to.
Rumi
Whoever gives reverence receives reverence.
Rumi
The Inspiration You Seek Is Already Within You. Be Silent And Listen.
Rumi
Remember, the entrance door to the sanctuary is inside you.
Rumi
There’s nothing left of me. I’m like a ruby held up to the sunrise. Is it still a stone, or a world made of redness? It has no resistance to sunlight.
Rumi
How can you ever hope to know the Beloved Without becoming in every cell the Lover?
Rumi
People who repress desires often turn, suddenly, into hypocrites.
Rumi
Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment. Cleverness is mere opinion. Bewilderment brings intuitive knowledge.
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
Give your life to the one who already owns your breath and your moments.
