More quotes by Rumi
Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
There is another language beyond language, another place beyond heaven and hell. Precious gems come from another mine, the heart draws light from another source.
Rumi
If it is bread that you seek, you will have bread. If it is the soul you seek, you will find the soul. If you understand this secret, you know you are that which you seek.
Rumi
I went inside my heart to see how it was. Something there makes me hear the whole world weeping.
Rumi
Every midwife knows that not until a mother’s womb softens from the pain of labor will a way unfold and the infant find that opening to be born. Oh friend! There is treasure in your heart, it is heavy with child. Listen. All the awakened ones, like trusted midwives are saying, 'welcome this pain. It opens the dark passage of Grace.
Rumi
The core of the seen and unseen universe smiles, but remember smiles come best from those who weep. Lightning, then the rain-laughter.
Rumi
The Soul is a stranger trying to find a Home somewhere that is not a where.
Rumi
That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.
Rumi
Peaceful is the one who's not concerned with having more or less. Unbound by name and fame, he is free from sorrow from the world and mostly from himself.
Rumi
He has afflicted you from every direction in order to pull you back to the directionless.
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
If you don't find true balance, anyone can deceive you.
Rumi
Fasting blinds the body in order to open the eyes of your soul.
Rumi
The message behind the words is the voice of the heart.
Rumi
LOVE and LOVER live in Eternity. Other desires are substitutes for that way of being.
Rumi
You live in my heart where no one sees you but I do. That vision becomes this art.
Rumi
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Rumi
The quieter we become, the more we can hear.
Rumi
He whose intellect overcomes his lust is higher than the angels he whose lust overcomes his intelligence is less than an animal.
Rumi
