I want a trouble-maker for a lover, Blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame, Who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate, Who burns like fire on the rushing sea.

More quotes by Rumi
How could you reach the pearl by only looking at the sea? If you seek the pearl, be a diver: the diver needs several qualities: he must trust his rope and his life to the Friend's hand, he must stop breathing, and he must jump.
Rumi
When you eventually see through the veils to how things really are, you will keep saying again and again, this is certainly not like we thought it was.
Rumi
Nothing can nourish the soul but LIGHT. Rid yourself of material needs and be set FREE.
Rumi
You moan, She left me. He left me, Twenty more will come.
Rumi
There is no Love greater than Love with no object. For then you, yourself, have become love, itself.
Rumi
Remember, the entrance door to the sanctuary is inside you.
Rumi
Tie two birds together. They will not be able to fly, even though they now have four wings.
Rumi
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Bitter your acts, bitter am I, Kindness your deeds, kindness am I, Pleasant and gentle, so you are, Fine honeyed lips and sweet talker.
Rumi
A lover is always accused of something. But when he finds his love, whatever was lost in the looking comes back completely changed.
Rumi
The world is nothing but a moment.
Rumi
They say there is a doorway from heart to heart, but what is the use of a door when there are no walls?
Rumi
Your heart mirrors not His love, Rusty with your sins it is, Remove this rust and you shall Perceive how Glorious He is.
Rumi
If my head holds one thought wise and clear, it's You. Poor as I am, what I hold dear is You. No matter how I see myself, I'm nothing ... Anything I am entirely is You!
Rumi
Half-heartedness doesn't reach into majesty. You set out to find God, but then you keep stopping for long periods at meanspirited roadhouses.
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
In real existence there is only unity.
Rumi
If you are wholly perplexed and in straits, have patience, for patience is the key to joy.
Rumi
We can't find the truth listening to our own voice's echo. We can find ourselves only in someone's mirror
Rumi
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence, or in absence. Both mourn, the angels, the prophets, and this sadness I feel has taken from me the taste of language, so that I cannot say the flavor of my being apart.
Rumi
