More quotes by Rumi
Return from existence to nonexistence. You are seeking the Lord and you belong to him. Nonexistence is a place of income flee it not. This existence of more and less is a place of expenditure.
Rumi
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me. My body is in Love with the soul and the soul is in Love with my body. I opened my arms to Love and Love embraced me like a lover.
Rumi
Revile those who flatter you.
Rumi
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
Rumi
If you want to be more alive, love is the truest health.
Rumi
Poems are rough notations for the music we are.
Rumi
Criticism polishes my mirror.
Rumi
Whoever is sitting with friends is in the midst of a flower garden, though he may be in the fire. Whoever sits with an enemy is in the fire, even though he is in the midst of a garden.
Rumi
Be kind and honest, and harmful poisons will turn sweet inside you.
Rumi
From myself I am copper, through you, friend, I am gold. From myself I’m a stone, but through you, I am a gem!
Rumi
Whatever you know, or don’t - only Love is real.
Rumi
There is a place where voices sing your beauty, A place where every breath carves your image in my soul.
Rumi
Your task? To work with all the passion of your being to acquire an inner light.
Rumi
I searched for God and found only myself. I searched for myself and found only God.
Rumi
LOVE comes of its own free will, it can't be learned in any school!
Rumi
The cure for pain is in the pain. Good and bad are mixed. If you don't have both, you don't belong with us.
Rumi
Everyone is overridden by thoughts that's why they have so much heartache and sorrow.
Rumi
Give up to grace. The ocean takes care of each wave 'til it gets to shore. You need more help than you know.
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
Just as the heart becomes carefree in a place of green, growing plants, goodwill and kindness are born when our souls enter happiness.
Rumi
