More quotes by Rumi
In truth everything and everyone Is a shadow of the Beloved, And our seeking is His seeking And our words are His words... We search for Him here and there, while looking right at Him. Sitting by His side, we ask: 'O Beloved, where is the Beloved?'
Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
To Love is to be God. Never will a Lover's chest feel any sorrow. Never will a Lover's robe be touched by mortals. Never will a Lover's body be found buried in the earth. To Love is to be God.
Rumi
Everything has to do with loving and not loving.
Rumi
Not the ones speaking the same language, but the ones sharing the same feeling understand each other.
Rumi
Every moment a taste of that beauty in our mouths, another stashed in a pocket. Impossible to say what: no cypress so handsome, no sunlight, a lonely hiddenness. Other pleasure gathers a crowd, starts a fight, lots of noise there. But soul beauty stays quiet..his amazing whereabouts unknown inside my heart.
Rumi
May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
Rumi
Where the lips are silent the heart has a thousand tongues.
Rumi
I was there in the beginning and I was the spirit of love.
Rumi
I smile like a flower not only with my lips but with my whole being.
Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi
The sweetness and delights of the resting-place are in proportion to the pain endured on the Journey. Only when you suffer the pangs and tribulations of exile will you truly enjoy your homecoming.
Rumi
I am neither of the East nor of the West, no boundaries exist within my breast.
Rumi
Don't be the rider who gallops all nightand never sees the horse that is beneath him
Rumi
Either give me more wine or leave me alone.
Rumi
If you desire healing, let yourself fall ill let yourself fall ill.
Rumi
Why struggle to open a door between us when the whole wall is an illusion?
Rumi
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
LOVE and LOVER live in Eternity. Other desires are substitutes for that way of being.
Rumi
Do you think I know what I'm doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it's writing, or the ball can guess where it's going next.
Rumi
