This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.

More quotes by Rumi
The spirit and the body carry different loads and require different attentions. Too often we put the saddlebags on Jesus and let the donkey run loose in the pasture.
Rumi
Return from existence to nonexistence. You are seeking the Lord and you belong to him. Nonexistence is a place of income flee it not. This existence of more and less is a place of expenditure.
Rumi
Each moment from all sides rushes to us the call to love. We are running to contemplate its vast green field. Do you want to come with us?
Rumi
When LOVE for GOD has been doubled in your HEART, there is no doubt that GOD has love for YOU.
Rumi
Everything that you want, you are already that.
Rumi
I know you're tired but come, this is the way.
Rumi
I smile like a flower not only with my lips but with my whole being.
Rumi
Wherever you stand, be the soul of that place.
Rumi
I open and fill with LOVE and what is not LOVE ... evaporates!
Rumi
If you see Two in One - I only see One in Two
Rumi
Everything is emptiness. Everything else, accidental. Emptiness brings peace to your loving. Everything else, disease. In this world of trickery, emptiness is what your soul wants.
Rumi
You are not just the drop in the ocean. You are the mighty ocean in the drop.
Rumi
Let yourself be loved, O Beloved, in the One. And from this One move out into the world, carrying within you the great potent energies of life to green your world, to create planets, suns, stars, stones, waves, oceans, to create new forms of life and expression - whether a friendship, a feeling or a new form of vocation.
Rumi
What a relief to be empty! Then God can live your life.
Rumi
Love is the soul's light, the taste of morning, no me, no we, no claim of being.
Rumi
I am so happy, I cannot be contained in the world But like a spirit, I am hidden from the eyes of the world.
Rumi
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
Rumi
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire.
Rumi
The Soul is a stranger trying to find a Home somewhere that is not a where.
Rumi
And if you are a rose, I am rose-shadow.
Rumi
