Conventional opinion is the ruin of our souls.
Rumi
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
Every midwife knows that not until a mother’s womb softens from the pain of labor will a way unfold and the infant find that opening to be born. Oh friend! There is treasure in your heart, it is heavy with child. Listen. All the awakened ones, like trusted midwives are saying, 'welcome this pain. It opens the dark passage of Grace.
Rumi
Knowest thou not the beauty of thine own face? Quit this temper that leads thee to war with thyself.
Rumi
Wings of Love long only to fly away from all directions.
Rumi
Counterfeiters exist because there is such a thing as real gold.
Rumi
A SEEING eye is better than three hundred blind men's: The eye can distinguish pearls from pebbles.
Rumi
Someday our souls will be one and our union will be forever. I know that everything I give you comes back to me. So I give you my life , hoping that you will come back to me.
Rumi
The rose does best as a rose. Lilies make the best lilies. And look! You - the best you around!
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
A Candle never Loses any of its Light while Lighting up another candle.
Rumi
When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.
Rumi
Although I may try to describe Love, When I experience it, I am speechless.
Rumi
Everyone sees the unseen in proportion to the clarity of his heart, and that depends upon how much he has polished it. Whoever has polished it more sees more - more unseen forms become manifest to him.
Rumi
All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
Rumi
Paradise is surrounded by what we dislike the fires of hell are surrounded by what we desire.
Rumi
Work on your stony qualities and become resplendent like the ruby. Practice self-denial and accept difficulty. Always see infinite life in letting the self die. Your stoniness will decrease your ruby nature will grow. The signs of self-existence will leave your body, and ecstasy will take you over.
Rumi
I belong to the beloved. Have seen the two worlds as one and that one call to and know. ...First, Last, Outer, Inner, only that breath breathing. HUMAN BEING.
Rumi
Love is an open secret, the most obvious thing in the world and the most hidden, with no why to how it keeps its mystery.
Rumi
