More quotes by Rumi
Your real country is where you're heading, not where you are.
Rumi
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
I should sell my tongue and buy a thousand ears when that One steps near and begins to speak.
Rumi
Awake asleep ought to be with us - So he may see dreams in wakefulness.
Rumi
And if one of our instruments breaks, it doesn't matter. We have fallen into the place where everything is music.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
Deep in the HEART every mystery of spirit is hidden.
Rumi
I honor those who try to rid themselves of any lying, who empty the self and have only clear being there.
Rumi
I said, O Love, tell me this: Does the Lord know you are treating me this way? Love said to me, yes He does, just be totally… totally… silent
Rumi
Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the river. Listen to the ocean.
Rumi
Though Destiny a hundred times waylays you,in the end it pitches a tent for you in Heaven. It is God's loving kindness to terrify you,in order to lead you to His Kingdom of safety.
Rumi
At every moment, Love's voice talks to us from left and from right. All we have to do is to know how to listen.
Rumi
Innumerable changes of moods are yours, and they are uncontrolled by you. If you knew their origin, you would be able to dominate them. If you cannot localize your own changes, how can you localize that which formed you?
Rumi
The feelings trembled and flapped in his chest like a bird newly put in a cage.
Rumi
Your radiance shines in every atom of creation yet our petty desires keep it hidden.
Rumi
What can I do my friends, if I do not know? I am neither Christian nor Jew, nor Muslim nor Hindu. What can I do? What can I do? Not of the East, nor of the West, Nor of the land, nor of the sea, Not of nature's essence, nor of circling heavens. What could I be?
Rumi
For those who realize that everything is from God, everything is the same.
Rumi
And you? When will you begin that long journey into yourself?
Rumi
Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison When the door is so wide open?
Rumi
Why are you knocking at every door ? Go, knock at the door of your own heart.
Rumi
