More quotes by Rumi
Protect yourself......from your own thoughts.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with the whole of our lives.
Rumi
Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not of the East, nor of the West.... My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Rumi
When someone mentions the gracefulness of the night sky, climb up on the roof and dance and say, like this?
Rumi
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
Rumi
God's purpose for man is to acquire a seeing eye and an understanding heart. God gave you life and bestowed upon you his attributes eventually you will return to him. The rewards of life and devotion to God are love and inner rapture, and the capacity to receive the light of God.
Rumi
Be patient, even if every possibility seems closed.
Rumi
The moon stays bright when it doesn't avoid the night.
Rumi
If you could leave your selfishness, you would see how you've been torturing your soul.
Rumi
The result of my life is no more than three words: I was raw, I became cooked, I was burnt.
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
Light the incense! You have to burn to be fragrant.
Rumi
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
Let the beauty we love do what we do.
Rumi
That hurt we embrace becomes joy. Call it to your arms where it can change.
Rumi
Why struggle to open a door between us when the whole wall is an illusion?
Rumi
It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.
Rumi
I Wish I Could Give You A Taste Of The Burning Fire Of Love. There Is A Fire Blazing Inside Of Me. If I Cry About It, Or If I Don’t, The Fire Is At Work, Night And Day.
Rumi
Last night I learned how to be a lover of God. To live in this world and call nothing my own.
Rumi
The mirror of the heart must be clear, so you can discern the ugly from the beautiful.
Rumi
