More quotes by Rumi
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as a plant and rose to animal, I died as an animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Rumi
Come out of the circle of time And into the circle of love.
Rumi
Seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
People want you to be happy. Don't keep serving them your pain! If you could untie your wings and free your soul of jealousy, you and everyone around you would fly up like doves.
Rumi
Every rose that is sweet-scented within, That rose is telling of the secrets of the Universal.
Rumi
Do not sit long with a sad friend. When you go to a garden do you look at the weeds? Spend more time with the roses and jasmines.
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
God's purpose for man is to acquire a seeing eye and an understanding heart. God gave you life and bestowed upon you his attributes eventually you will return to him. The rewards of life and devotion to God are love and inner rapture, and the capacity to receive the light of God.
Rumi
people want you to be happy, don't keep serving them your pain

This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
Rumi
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me.
Rumi
My dear heart, never think you are better than others. Listen to their sorrows with compassion. If you want peace, don't harbor bad thoughts, do not gossip and don't teach what you do not know.
Rumi
There is no way into Presence except through a love exchange.
Rumi
I found the Divine within my Heart.
Rumi
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Rumi
You are not just the drop in the ocean. You are the mighty ocean in the drop.
Rumi
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Rumi
Look at the moon in the sky, not the one in the lake.
Rumi
