More quotes by Rumi
The agony of lovers burns with the fire of passion. Lovers leave traces of where they've been. The wailing of broken hearts is the doorway to God.
Rumi
Darkness may hide the trees and the flowers from the eyes but it cannot hide love from the soul.
Rumi
If you want money more than anything, you'll be bought and sold your whole life.
Rumi
Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Don't argue or answer rationally. Let us die, and dying, reply.
Rumi
Why are you so enchanted by this world, when a mine of gold lies within you?
Rumi
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
Rumi
Those with open hearts always have open hands.
Rumi
Don't put blankets over the drum! Open completely. Let your spirit ear listen to the green dome's passionate murmur.
Rumi
In his mind she lay at his lap with his fingers gliding thru her straight beautiful hair. He smiles and says your beauty lights up everything around you.
Rumi
You have no need to travel anywhere - journey within yourself. Enter a mine of rubies and bathe in the splendor of your own light.
Rumi
Concentrate on the Essence, concentrate on the Light.
Rumi
What matters is how quickly you do what your soul directs.
Rumi
Hall of Love has ten thousand swords. Don't be afraid to use one.
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the language-river. Listen to the ocean, and bring your talky business to an end. Traditional words are just babbling in that presence, and babbling is a substitute for sight.
Rumi
The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart
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
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
My longing for you keeps me in this moment My passion gives me courage
Rumi
Passion makes the old medicine new: Passion lops off the bough of weariness. Passion is the elixir that renews: how can there be weariness when passion is present? Oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue: seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
