I do not know who lives here in my chest, or why the smile comes. I am not myself, more the bare green knob of a rose that lost every leaf and petal to the morning wind.

More quotes by Rumi
Don't stray from your Heart's intent.
Rumi
Rise up nimbly and go on your strange journey to the ocean of meanings.... Leave and don't look away from the sun as you go, in whose light you're sometimes crescent, sometimes full.
Rumi
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Like the birds of the sea, men come from the ocean-the ocean of the soul. How could this bird, born from that sea, make his dwelling here?
Rumi
I turn all thorn then, but you come back again and make my thorniness fragrant and pink and petaled.
Rumi
Ecstatic Love is an ocean, and the Milky Way is a flake of foam floating on it.
Rumi
And patience flees my heart, And reason flees my mind. Oh, how drunk can I get to be, Without your love's security?
Rumi
Paradise is surrounded by what we dislike the fires of hell are surrounded by what we desire.
Rumi
Do not sit long with a sad friend. When you go to a garden do you look at the weeds? Spend more time with the roses and jasmines.
Rumi
Let silence take you to the core of life.
Rumi
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about.
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
My lips got lost on the way to the kiss - that's how drunk I was.
Rumi
There is a life in you, search that life, search the secret jewel in the mountain of your body.
Rumi
My longing for you keeps me in this moment My passion gives me courage
Rumi
Wings of Love long only to fly away from all directions.
Rumi
Your breath touched my soul and I saw beyond all limits.
Rumi
When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
This is enough was always true. We just haven't seen it.
Rumi
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
Rumi
