More quotes by Rumi
You have forgotten the One who doesn't care about ownership, who doesn't try to turn a profit from every human exchange.
Rumi
Our death is our wedding with eternity.
Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
We are born of love. Love is our mother.
Rumi
I want that love that moved the mountains. I want that love that split the ocean. I want that love that made the winds tremble. I want that love that roared like thunder. I want that love that will raise the dead. I want that love that lifts us to ecstasy. I want that love that is the silence of eternity.
Rumi
I seem restless, but am deeply at ease. Branches tremble the roots are still.
Rumi
Oh, wandering One, if you are in search of the greatest treasure, don't look outside. Look within, and seek That.
Rumi
From the Distance You only See My Light Come closer and You will Know that I Am You.
Rumi
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door and open the love-window. The moon won't use the door, only the window.
Rumi
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.
Rumi
You are the fountain of the sun. I'm the shadow of a willow. You fall upon my forehead. I melt. You slip into my heart. It spills open. You surround me with such sweetness. I make it my home.
Rumi
When you lose all sense of self the bonds of a thousands chains will vanish. Lose yourself completely, return to the root of the root of your own soul.
Rumi
The ground submits to the sky and suffers whatever comes. Tell me, is the Earth worse for giving in like that?
Rumi
If you dig a pit for others to fall into, you will fall into it yourself.
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
Fasting is the first principle of medicine fast and see the strength of the spirit reveal itself.
Rumi
There’s nothing left of me. I’m like a ruby held up to the sunrise. Is it still a stone, or a world made of redness? It has no resistance to sunlight.
Rumi
Ignorance is God's prison. Knowing is God's palace
Rumi
Ecstatic Love is an ocean, and the Milky Way is a flake of foam floating on it.
Rumi
