More quotes by Rumi
Give up to grace. The ocean takes care of each wave 'til it gets to shore. You need more help than you know.
Rumi
Two there are who are never satisfied -- the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
Rumi
Enough of words. Come to me without a sound.
Rumi
Never lose hope when the beloved sends you away. If you're abandoned if you're left hopeless tomorrow for sure you'll be called again. If the door is shut right in your face keep waiting with patience don't leave right away. Seeing your patience your love will soon summon you with grace raise you like a champion.
Rumi
If you could leave your selfishness, you would see how you've been torturing your soul.
Rumi
Travel brings power and love back into your life.
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.
Rumi
I want a trouble-maker for a lover, Blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame, Who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate, Who burns like fire on the rushing sea.
Rumi
Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison When the door is so wide open?
Rumi
There is no way into Presence except through a love exchange.
Rumi
The Heart of the matter is Soul, nothing else.
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.
Rumi
Innumerable changes of moods are yours, and they are uncontrolled by you. If you knew their origin, you would be able to dominate them. If you cannot localize your own changes, how can you localize that which formed you?
Rumi
All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
Rumi
Gamble everything for love, if you are a true human being. If not, leave this gathering. Half-heartedness doesn’t reach into majesty.
Rumi
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
God made the Illusion look Real and the Real an Illusion !
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
Do not worry if all the candles in the world flicker and die. We have the spark that starts the fire.
Rumi
