More quotes by Rumi
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart
Rumi
This is how it always is when I finish a poem. A great silence overcomes me and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.
Rumi
Let the Beloved be a hat pulled down firmly on my head.
Rumi
Whether you love God or you love a human being, if you love enough you will come into the presence of Love itself.
Rumi
Oh you, unceasing sun, to me Your particles communicate The luminous essence of God, Are you our God? I do not know. Intoxicated, I say nought, Bewitched by the magic potion. I cannot differentiate Between my drunk and sober state.
Rumi
When I am with you, we stay up all night. When you're not here, I can't go to sleep. Praise God for those two insomnias! And the difference between them.
Rumi
All my feelings have the color you desire to paint.
Rumi
The ocean of the body crashes against the ocean of the heart. Between them is a barrier they cannot cross.
Rumi
In the orchard and rose garden I long to see your face. In the taste of Sweetness I long to kiss your lips. In the shadows of passion I long for your love.
Rumi
The Heart that is not in love will fail the test.
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
We are all the same ... all the same... longing to find our way back ... back to the One ... back to the Only One!
Rumi
What comes, will go. What is found, will be lost again. But what you are is beyond coming and going and beyond description.
Rumi
Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.
Rumi
Beyond the rightness or wrongness of things there is a field, I'll meet you there
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
Work in the invisible world at least as hard as you do in the visible.
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant. So completely mixed with you, I may look separate. So out in the open, I appear hidden. So silent, because I am constantly talking with you.
Rumi
A lover in life will be a lover in death, a lover in the tomb, a lover in paradise, a lover on the day of resurrection.
Rumi
Now is the time to unite the Soul and the world.
Rumi
