More quotes by Rumi
If you knew the secret of life, you too would choose no other companion but love.
Rumi
Since I was cut from the reedbed I have made this crying sound. Anyone separated from someone he loves understands what I say. Anyone pulled from a Source longs to go back.
Rumi
When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you're not here, I can't go to sleep. Praise God for those two insomnias! And the difference between them.
Rumi
The spirit is so near that you can't see it! But reach for it... don't be a jar, full of water, whose rim is always dry. Don't be the rider who gallops all night and never sees the horse that is beneath him.
Rumi
Hall of Love has ten thousand swords. Don't be afraid to use one.
Rumi
Wings of Love long only to fly away from all directions.
Rumi
If reason dominates in man, he rises higher than angels. If lust overpowers man, he descends lower than the beast.
Rumi
Now I am sober and there's only the hangover and the memory of love.
Rumi
I searched for God and found only myself. I searched for myself and found only God.
Rumi
Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not of the East, nor of the West.... My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Rumi
The same wind that uproots trees makes the grass shine. The lordly wind loves the weakness and the lowness of grasses. Never brag of being strong. The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are. It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves. It leaves the leaves alone.
Rumi
To me nothing in the world is as precious as a genuine smile, especially from a child.
Rumi
The very center of your heart is where life begins. The most beautiful place on earth.
Rumi
The wealth within you, your essence, is your kingdom.
Rumi
The satiated person and the hungry one do not see the same thing when they look upon a loaf of bread.
Rumi
The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you.
Rumi
There are many ways to the Divine. I have chosen the ways of song, dance, and laughter.
Rumi
Who could be so lucky? Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.
Rumi
You think because you understand 'one' you must also understand 'two', because one and one make two. But you must also understand 'and'.
Rumi
When the ocean surges, don't let me just hear it. Let it splash inside my chest!
Rumi
