More quotes by Rumi
War, like children's fights, are meaningless, pitiless, and contemptible.
Rumi
If it is bread that you seek, you will have bread. If it is the soul you seek, you will find the soul. If you understand this secret, you know you are that which you seek.
Rumi
When The Goodwill Of Hearts Is With You, Fountains Of Wisdom Will Begin To Flow From Within Your Own Being.
Rumi
You rave about the Holy Place (Masjid al-Haram) and say you've visited God's garden but where is your bunch of flowers? There is some merit in the suffering you have endured but what a pity you have not discovered the Makkah thats inside
Rumi
I become a waterwheel, turning and tasting you, as long as water moves.
Rumi
We are tasting the taste of eternity this minute.
Rumi
We are as the flute, and the music in us is from thee we are as the mountain and the echo in us is from thee.
Rumi
My dear heart, never think you are better than others. Listen to their sorrows with compassion. If you want peace, don't harbor bad thoughts, do not gossip and don't teach what you do not know.
Rumi
Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Don't argue or answer rationally. Let us die, and dying, reply.
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
People who repress desires often turn, suddenly, into hypocrites.
Rumi
Soul of all souls, life of all life - you are That. Seen and unseen, moving and unmoving - you are That. The road that leads to the City is endless Go without head and feet and you'll already be there. What else could you be? - you are That.
Rumi
We came whirling out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust... The stars made a circle, and in the middle, we dance.
Rumi
There's no one with intelligence in this town except that man over there playing with the children, the one riding the stick horse. He has keen, fiery insight and vast dignity like the night sky, but he conceals it in the madness of child's play.
Rumi
Those doing soul work, who want the searing truth more than solace or applause, know each other right away. Those who want something else turn and take a seat in another room. Soul-makers find each other’s company.
Rumi
Knowledge that is acquired is not like this. Those who have it worry if audiences like it or not. It's a bait for popularity. Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul... The only real customer is God. Chew quietly your sweet sugarcane God-Love, and stay playfully childish.
Rumi
To a frog that's never left his pond, the ocean seems like a gamble. Look what he's giving up: security, mastery of his world, recognition! The ocean frog just shakes his head. I can't explain where I live, but someday I'll take you there.
Rumi
Moonlight floods the whole sky from horizon to horizon How much it can fill your room depends on its windows.
Rumi
I lost my hat while gazing at the moon, and then I lost my mind.
Rumi
The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you.
Rumi
