Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.

More quotes by Rumi
There is a sun within every person.
Rumi
If you do not possess the staff of caution and discrimination, use the eyes of him who sees. If there is no staff of caution and discrimination, do not wander on the road without a guide.
Rumi
Whatever you know, or don’t - only Love is real.
Rumi
Get yourself out of the way, and let Joy have more space.
Rumi
Love is the reality, and poetry is the drum.
Rumi
Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.
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
In their seeking, wisdom and madness are one and the same. On the path of love, friend and stranger are one and the same.
Rumi
Be with those who help your being. Don't sit with indifferent people, whose breath comes cold out of their mouths.
Rumi
There goes a river dragging an ocean behind it.
Rumi
You have been a prisoner of a little pond I am the ocean and its turbulent flood Come merge with me leave this world of ignorance
Rumi
In each moment the fire rages, it will burn away a hundred veils. And carry you a thousand steps toward your goal.
Rumi
What shall I say, O Muslims, I know not myself, I am neither a Christian, nor a Jew, nor a Zoroastrian, nor a Muslim.
Rumi
The sun comes back every day with new and powerful secrets.
Rumi
Turning toward what you deeply love saves you
Rumi
I have no fear to burn my mouth and throat I’m ready to drink every flame and more.
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
Whatever happens to you, don't fall in despair. Even if all the doors are closed, a secret path will be there for you that no one knows. You can't see it yet but so many paradises are at the end of this path...Be grateful! It is easy to thank after obtaining what you want, thank before having what you want.
Rumi
Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom.
Rumi
The heart has its own language. The heart knows a hundred thousand ways to speak.
Rumi
