You've been walking the ocean's edge, holding up your robes to keep them dry. You must dive naked under, and deeper under, a thousand times deeper!

More quotes by Rumi
Come, even if you have broken your vow one thousand times, come, yet again, come, come.
Rumi
There is little one can say about love. It has to be lived, and it's always in motion.
Rumi
LOVE is what gives joy to giving joy.
Rumi
Love Came.... and became like blood in my body. It rushed through my veins and encircled my Heart. Everywhere I looked, I saw One Thing.... Love's Name written on my limbs, on my left palm, on my forehead, on the back of my neck, on my right big toe... Oh, my friend, all that you see of me is just a shell, and the rest belongs to Love.
Rumi
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
Rumi
Find the sweetness in your own heart, then you may find the sweetness in every heart.
Rumi
Finding faults is for those with tired minds.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the SOUL but LIGHT.
Rumi
Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives. But this dove here senses the love hawk floating above, and waits, and will not be driven or scared to safety.
Rumi
I said to the night, If you are in love with the moon, it is because you never stay for long. The night turned to me and said, It is not my fault. I never see the Sun, how can I know that love is endless?
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love.
Rumi
The drum of the realization of the promise is beating, we are sweeping the road to the sky. Your joy is here today, what remains for tomorrow?
Rumi
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more - more unseen forms become manifest to him.
Rumi
The soul which cannot endure fire and smoke won't find the Secret.
Rumi
Lightning, your presence from ground to sky, no one knows what becomes of me, when you take me so quickly.
Rumi
Light up the fire of love inside and blaze the thoughts away.
Rumi
Heartsick, heartbroken - to know love is to know pain. What could be more common? Even so, each broken heart is so singular that with it we probe the divine.
Rumi
I love myself...I love you. I love you...I love myself.
Rumi
Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralysed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds' wings.
Rumi
Lovers are patient and know that the moon needs time to become full.
Rumi
