I drank that Wine of which the Soul is its vessel. Its ecstasy has stolen my intellect away. A Light came and kindled a Flame in the depth of my Soul. A Light so radiant that the sun orbits around it like a butterfly.
Rumi

More quotes by Rumi
Be motivated like the falcon, hunt gloriously. Be magnificent as the leopard, fight to win. Spend less time with nightingales and peacocks. One is all talk, the other only color.
Rumi
Are you jealous of the ocean’s generosity? Why would you refuse to give this joy to anyone? Fish don’t hold the sacred liquid in cups! They swim the huge fluid freedom.
Rumi
Love is an emotion. Totally silent and inexpressible with words.
Rumi
There comes a holy and transparent time when every touch of beauty opens the heart to tears. This is the time the Beloved of heaven is brought tenderly on earth. This is the time of the opening of the ROSE.
Rumi
Love is the Water of Life Everything other than love for the most beautiful God is agony of the spirit, though it be sugar- eating. What is agony of the spirit? To advance toward death without seizing hold of the Water of Life.
Rumi
You suppose you are the trouble But you are the cure You suppose that you are the lock on the door But you are the key that opens it It's too bad that you want to be someone else You don't see your own face, your own beauty Yet, no face is more beautiful than yours.
Rumi
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
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
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!
Rumi
At every instant and from every side, resounds the call of Love: We are going to sky, who wants to come with us? We have gone to Heaven, we have been the friends of the angels, And now we will go back there, for there is our country.
Rumi
Feeling lonely and ignoble indicates that you haven't been patient.
Rumi
Be melting snow. Wash yourself of yourself.
Rumi
Love, the supreme musician, is always playing in our souls
Rumi
I have no name for what circles so perfectly.
Rumi
Tender words we spoke to one another are sealed in the secret vaults of heaven. One day like rain, they will fall to earth and grow green all over the world.
Rumi
There is an unseen sweetness in the stomach’s emptiness. We are lutes. When the sound box is filled, no music can come forth. When the brain and the belly burn from fasting, every moment a new song rises out of the fire. The mists clear, and a new vitality makes you spring up the steps before you . . .
Rumi
Love is the house of God and you are living in that house.
Rumi
Whoever's calm and sensible is insane!
Rumi
Your calling my name is My reply. Your longing for Me is My message to you.
Rumi
The radiant one in me has never said a word.
Rumi
