More quotes by Rumi
We rarely hear the inward music, but we're all dancing to it nevertheless.
Rumi
Life is balance of holding on and letting go.
Rumi
Take sips of this pure wine being poured. Don't mind that you've been given a dirty cup.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the soul but LIGHT. Rid yourself of material needs and be set FREE.
Rumi
Knock, And He'll open the door Vanish, And He'll make you shine like the sun Fall, And He'll raise you to the heavens Become nothing, And He'll turn you into everything.
Rumi

Rumi
The lion who breaks the enemy's ranks is a minor hero compared to the lion who overcomes himself.
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
Hall of Love has ten thousand swords. Don't be afraid to use one.
Rumi
Allah made the illusion look real and the real an illusion. He concealed the sea and made the foam visible, the wind invisible, and the dust manifest. you see the dust whirling, but how can the dust rise by itself? you see the foam, but not the ocean. invoke Him with deeds, not words for deeds are real and will save you in the infinite-life.
Rumi
Lovers don't meet in the end, they are in each other forever.
Rumi
Sit with lovers and choose their state. Do not stay long with those who are not living in the heart.
Rumi
Those who don't feel this love pulling them like a river, those who don't drink dawn like a cup of springwater or take in sunset like a supper, those who don't want to change, let them sleep.
Rumi
Your acts of kindness are iridescent wings of divine love, which linger and continue to uplift others long after your sharing.
Rumi
Turning toward what you deeply love saves you
Rumi
I will find new meaning in every joy and sorrow.
Rumi
What is planted in each person's soul will sprout.
Rumi
Love is an emotion. Totally silent and inexpressible with words.
Rumi
What was said to the rose that made it open, was said to me, here in my chest.
Rumi
Pour out wine till I become a wanderer from myself for in selfhood and existence I have felt only fatigue.
Rumi
