The way to heaven is within. Shake the wings of love-when love's wings have become strong, there is no need to trouble about a ladder.

More quotes by Rumi
Swim out of your little pond.
Rumi
Lovers don't meet in the end, they are in each other forever.
Rumi
Drink from the presence of saints, not from those other jars.
Rumi
I made an oath to myself: as long as I live as long as my soul remains in this body I won't deviate from the right way but later I looked to my left and then to my right and I saw our beloved everywhere how could I make a wrong turn?
Rumi
Dancing is not just getting up painlessly, like a leaf blown on the wind dancing is when you tear your heart out and rise out of your body to hang suspended between the worlds.
Rumi
Love is an endless ocean, with no beginning or end. Imagine, a suspended ocean, riding on a cushion of ancient secrets.
Rumi
Don't look for me in a human shape, I am inside your looking.
Rumi
Oh Beloved, take me. Liberate my soul. Fill me with your love and release me from the two worlds. If I set my heart on anything but you let fire burn me from inside. Oh Beloved, take away what I want. Take away what I do. Take away what I need. Take away everything that takes me from you.
Rumi
When water is still like a mirror it can behold the Moon.
Rumi
The day is conscious of itself.
Rumi
I am bewildered by the magnificence of your beauty and wish to see you with a hundred eyes . . . I am in the house of mercy, and my heart is a place of prayer.
Rumi
Love possesses seven hundred wings, and each one extends from the highest heaven to the lowest earth.
Rumi
Love is a madman, working his wild schemes, tearing off his clothes, running through the mountains...
Rumi
For me to praise is interrupting praise.
Rumi
Come into my eyes, and look at me through them, for I have chosen a home far beyond what eyes can see.
Rumi
You try to be faithful And sometimes you're cruel. You are mine. Then, you leave. Without you, I can't cope. And when you take the lead, I become your footstep. Your absence leaves a void. Without you, I can't cope. You have disturbed my sleep, You have wrecked my image. You have set me apart. Without you, I can't cope.
Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
This is a subtle truth. Whatever you love, you are.
Rumi
The world is nothing but a moment.
Rumi
Everything you possess of skill, and wealth, and handicraft, wasn't it first merely a thought and a quest?
Rumi
