Quote

Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased. Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken. But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever.

The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities.
Rumi
Image
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about.
Rumi
Image
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky
Rumi
Image
The intellectual quest is exquisite like pearls and coral, But it is not the same as the spiritual quest. The spiritual quest is on another level altogether, Spiritual wine has a subtler taste. The intellect and the senses investigate cause and effect. The spiritual seeker surrenders to the wonder.
Rumi
Image
You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains.
Rumi
Image
Mount the stallion of love and do not fear the path, love’s stallion knows the way exactly. With one leap, Love’s horse will carry you home.
Rumi
Image
Your radiance shines in every atom of creation yet our petty desires keep it hidden.
Rumi
Image
Give up to grace. The ocean takes care of each wave 'til it gets to shore. You need more help than you know.
Rumi
Image
A pure heart, open to the Light, will be filled with the elixir of Truth.
Rumi
Image
Although you see the pit, you cannot avoid it.
Rumi
Image
To Love is to be God. Never will a Lover's chest feel any sorrow. Never will a Lover's robe be touched by mortals. Never will a Lover's body be found buried in the earth. To Love is to be God.
Rumi
Image
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
Image
I saw grief drinking a cup of sorrow and called out, 'It tastes sweet, does it not?' 'You've caught me,' grief answered, 'and you've ruined my business. How can I sell sorrow, when you know it's a blessing?
Rumi
Image
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
Image
Your legs will get heavy and tired. Then comes a moment of feeling the wings you've grown, lifting.
Rumi
Image
The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
Rumi
Image
We are the mirror as well as the face in it. We are tasting the taste this minute of eternity. We are pain and what cures pain both. We are the sweet cold water and the jar that pours.
Rumi
Image
The Inspiration You Seek Is Already Within You. Be Silent And Listen.
Rumi
Image
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come and press its face against mine. Breathe into me. Close the language-door and open the love-window. The moon won't use the door, only the window.
Rumi
Image
I was dead, then alive. Weeping, then laughing. The power of love came into me, and I became fierce like a lion, then tender like the evening star.
Rumi
