More quotes by Rumi
Whoever travels without a guide, needs two hundred years for a two-day journey.
Rumi
Fasting blinds the body in order to open the eyes of your soul.
Rumi
Stop learning. Start knowing
Rumi
And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?
Rumi
I am a bird of God's garden and I do not belong to this dusty world For a day or two they have put me here in this cage of my own body I did not come here of my own I will not return of my own to my own country.
Rumi
What can I do my friends, if I do not know? I am neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim nor Hindu. What can I do? What can I do? Not of the East, nor of the West, Nor of the land, nor of the sea, Not of nature's essence, nor of circling heavens. What could I be?
Rumi
Journey from the self to the Self and find the mine of gold. Leave behind what is sour and bitter and move toward the sweet.
Rumi
This is how I would die into the love I have for you: As pieces of cloud dissolve in sunlight.
Rumi
Rise up nimbly and go on your strange journey!
Rumi
I used to read the myths of love Now I have become the mythical lover
Rumi
And if you are a rose, I am rose-shadow.
Rumi
Give your life to the one who already owns your breath and your moments.
Rumi
Knowledge that is acquired is not like this. Those who have it worry if audiences like it or not. It's a bait for popularity. Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul... The only real customer is God. Chew quietly your sweet sugarcane God-Love, and stay playfully childish.
Rumi
There is a community of the spirit. Join it, and feel the delight of walking in the noisy street and being the noise. Drink all your passion, and be a disgrace. Close both eyes to see with the other eye.
Rumi
Come into my eyes, and look at me through them, for I have chosen a home far beyond what eyes can see.
Rumi
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
Rumi
When I am silent, I have thunder hidden inside.
Rumi
Water, stories, the body, all the things we do, are mediums that hid and show what's hidden.
Rumi
I was there in the beginning and I was the spirit of love.
Rumi
The middle path is the way to wisdom
Rumi
