More quotes by 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
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire.
Rumi
Wherever you stand, be the soul of that place.
Rumi
I am part of the load not rightly balanced . . .
Rumi
The sun comes back every day with new and powerful secrets.
Rumi
All we really want is love's confusing joy.
Rumi
Light the incense! You have to burn to be fragrant.
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
When you have indulged a lust, your wing drops off you become lame, abandoned by a fantasy. …People fancy they are enjoying themselves, but they are really tearing out their wings for the sake of an illusion.
Rumi
Let's ask God to help us to self-control for one who lacks it, lacks his grace.
Rumi
You moan, She left me. He left me, Twenty more will come.
Rumi
When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.
Rumi
You are not one you are a Thousand. Just Light your Lantern.
Rumi
Who could be so lucky? Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.
Rumi
Since in order to speak, one must first listen, learn to speak by listening.
Rumi
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Rumi
To me nothing in the world is as precious as a genuine smile, especially from a child.
Rumi
Why should I be unhappy? Each parcel of my being is in full bloom.
Rumi
Through love scraps of copper are turned to gold.
Rumi
The quieter we become, the more we can hear.
Rumi
