You are a fountain of the sun's light. I am a willow shadow on the ground. You make my raggedness silky.

More quotes by Rumi
If you don't try to fly and so break yourself apart, you will be broken open by death, when it's too late for all you could become.
Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
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
Behead yourself!... Dissolve your whole body into Vision: become seeing, seeing, seeing!
Rumi
Longing is the core of mystery. Longing itself brings the cure. The only rule is, suffer the pain. Your desires must be disciplined And what you want to happen in time, sacrificed.
Rumi
When someone mentions the gracefulness of the night sky, climb up on the roof and dance and say, like this?
Rumi
There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen.
Rumi
Sit with lovers and choose their state. Do not stay long with those who are not living in the heart.
Rumi
people want you to be happy, don't keep serving them your pain
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.
Rumi
Actually, your soul and mine are the same. We appear and disappear with each other.
Rumi
Nearness to God is common to us all, Because we're all created and sustained by God, But only the authentically noble Possess and live that nearness That's a constant upswelling passion of love.
Rumi
Love, the supreme musician, is always playing in our souls
Rumi
What comes, will go. What is found, will be lost again. But what you are is beyond coming and going and beyond description.
Rumi
The lion who breaks the enemy's ranks is a minor hero compared to the lion who overcomes himself.
Rumi
The wealth within you, your essence, is your kingdom.
Rumi
What hurts the soul? To live without tasting the water of its own essence.
Rumi
You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains.
Rumi
When you notice a fault in your neighbour, search for the same in yourself.
Rumi
There's a hidden sweetness in the stomach's emptiness. We are lutes, no more, no less. If the soundbox is stuffed full of anything, no music.... When you're full of food and drink, Satan sits where your spirit should.
Rumi
