More quotes by Rumi
This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away.
Rumi
There is someone who looks after us from behind the curtain. In truth we are not here, this is our shadow.
Rumi
I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul.
Rumi
I opened my arms to Love and Love embraced me like a Lover
Rumi
The mirror of the heart must be clear, so you can discern the ugly from the beautiful.
Rumi
Stop looking for something out there and begin seeing within.
Rumi
Through love scraps of copper are turned to gold.
Rumi
If my head holds one thought wise and clear, it's You. Poor as I am, what I hold dear is You. No matter how I see myself, I'm nothing ... Anything I am entirely is You!
Rumi
But learn this custom from the flower: silence your tongue.
Rumi
For me to praise is interrupting praise.
Rumi
Indeed envy is a defect worse than any other.
Rumi
Whenever Beauty looks, Love is also there.
Rumi
Woman is the light of God.
Rumi
Seek the sound that never ceases. Seek the sun that never sets.
Rumi
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door and open the love-window. The moon won't use the door, only the window.
Rumi
Even when you tear its petals off one after another, the rose keeps laughing and doesn’t bend in pain. “Why should I be afflicted because of a thorn? It is the thorn which taught me how to laugh.” Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
What matters is how quickly you do what your soul directs.
Rumi
If you want to be more alive, love is the truest health.
Rumi
The moon stays bright when it doesn't avoid the night.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
