More quotes by Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence or in absence.
Rumi
Seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
Love is the vital core of the soul. And of all you see, only love is infinite.
Rumi
There are many languages in the world in meaning all are the same. If you break the cups, water will be unified and will flow together.
Rumi
The same wind that uproots trees makes the grass shine. The lordly wind loves the weakness and the lowness of grasses. Never brag of being strong. The axe doesn't worry how thick the branches are. It cuts them to pieces. But not the leaves. It leaves the leaves alone.
Rumi
For hundreds of thousands of years I have been dust-grains floating and flying in the will of the air, often forgetting ever being in that state, but in sleep I migrate back.
Rumi
What shall I say, O Muslims, I know not myself, I am neither a Christian, nor a Jew, nor a Zoroastrian, nor a Muslim.
Rumi
Dancing is not just getting up painlessly, like a leaf blown on the wind dancing is when you tear your heart out and rise out of your body to hang suspended between the worlds.
Rumi
I want your sun to reach my raindrops, so your heat can raise my soul upward like a cloud.
Rumi
Everything that you want, you are already that.
Rumi
Only from the heart can you touch the sky.
Rumi
Last night you left me and slept your own deep sleep. Tonight you turn and turn. I say, 'You and I will be together till the Universe dissolves.' You mumble back things you thought of when you were drunk.
Rumi
I am an ark in the swift flood of time, and my companions, a fellowship. Who throws in with us sails into light.
Rumi
There is no salvation for the soul but to fall in love.
Rumi
Hear from the heart wordless mysteries.
Rumi
Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.
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
The sun comes back every day with new and powerful secrets.
Rumi
Don't be fooled by my beauty - the light of my face comes from the candle of my spirit.
Rumi
The spirit and the body carry different loads and require different attentions. Too often we put the saddlebags on Jesus and let the donkey run loose in the pasture.
Rumi
