More quotes by Rumi
When you go through a hard period, When everything seems to oppose you, ... When you feel you cannot even bear one more minute, NEVER GIVE UP! Because it is the time and place that the course will divert!
Rumi
Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing, where something might be planted, a seed, possibly, from the Absolute.
Rumi
There’s a morning when presence comes over your soul. You sing like a rooster in your earth-colored shape. Your heart hears and, no longer frantic, begins to dance.
Rumi
Love is the house of God and you are living in that house.
Rumi
Woman is the light of God.
Rumi
When someone critises or disagrees with you, a small ant of hatred and antagonism is born in your heart. If you do not squash that ant at once, it might grow into a snake, or even a dragon.
Rumi
Everything is emptiness. Everything else, accidental. Emptiness brings peace to your loving. Everything else, disease. In this world of trickery, emptiness is what your soul wants.
Rumi
How could you reach the pearl by only looking at the sea? If you seek the pearl, be a diver: the diver needs several qualities: he must trust his rope and his life to the Friend's hand, he must stop breathing, and he must jump.
Rumi
Inside the Great Mystery that is, we don't really own anything. What is this competition we feel then, before we go, one at a time, through the same gate?
Rumi
If you want to be more alive, love is the truest health.
Rumi
The thirsty look for water, but water also looks for thirsty.
Rumi
The moon stays bright when it doesn't avoid the night.
Rumi
Be soulful. Be kind. Be in love.
Rumi
Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives.
Rumi
Many of the faults you see in others, dear reader, are your own nature reflected in them.
Rumi
All the world Loves You, but You are nowhere to be found, Hidden and yet . . . completely obvious!
Rumi
Body is not veiled from soul, neither soul from body, Yet no man hath ever seen a soul.
Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
A SEEING eye is better than three hundred blind men's: The eye can distinguish pearls from pebbles.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
