More quotes by Rumi
Explanation by the tongue makes most things clear, But love unexplained is clearer.
Rumi
The radiant one in me has never said a word.
Rumi
Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being.
Rumi
Give yourself completely to the one you call God. If you are not doing it you are wasting your time here.
Rumi
We are even higher than the heavens, we are greater than angels Why should we not transcend both? Our lodging-place is Majesty.
Rumi
Everything about yesterday has gone with yesterday. Today, it is needed to say new things.
Rumi
If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Rumi
How can you ever hope to know the Beloved Without becoming in every cell the Lover?
Rumi

Rumi
Everything you possess of skill, and wealth, and handicraft, wasn't it first merely a thought and a quest?
Rumi
Be suspicious of what you want.
Rumi
Know mankind well, don't degrade every man as evil, and don't exalt every man thinking he is good. He who cannot discover himself cannot discover the world.
Rumi
What you are seeking is also seeking you.
Rumi
Dance where you can break yourself up to pieces and totally abandon your worldly passions.
Rumi
A heart filled with love is like a phoenix that no cage can imprison.
Rumi
You show your worth by what you seek.
Rumi
Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul.
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world. The forms may change, yet the essence remains the same.
Rumi
You wander from room to room Hunting for the diamond necklace That is already around your neck!
Rumi
