More quotes by Rumi
A pen went scribbling along. When it tried to write love, it broke.
Rumi
You think because you understand 'one' you must also understand 'two', because one and one make two. But you must also understand 'and'.
Rumi
You do not see clearly the evil in yourself, else you would hate yourself with all your soul. Like the lion who sprang at his image in the water, you are only hurting yourself, O foolish man. When you reach the bottom of the well of your own nature, then you will know that the vileness was from yourself.
Rumi
Every object, every being...is a jar full of delight.
Rumi
The meaning of poetry has no sureness of direction is like the sling, it is not under control.
Rumi
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
Rumi
Stop, open up, surrender the beloved blind silence. Stay there until you see you're looking at the light with infinite eyes.
Rumi
Bring the sky beneath your feet and listen to celestial music everywhere.
Rumi
The lion is most handsome when looking for food.
Rumi
There is no salvation for the soul but to fall in love.
Rumi
For only when faithfulness turns to betrayal And betrayal into trust Can any human being become part of the truth.
Rumi
You live in my heart where no one sees you but I do. That vision becomes this art.
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
Let a thousand wrangling desires become one Love.
Rumi
This is the essence of all sciences - that you should know who you will be when the Day of Reckoning arrives.
Rumi
I died as a mineral and became a plant, I died as a plant and rose to animal, I died as an animal and I was Man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Rumi
If you do not possess the staff of caution and discrimination, use the eyes of him who sees. If there is no staff of caution and discrimination, do not wander on the road without a guide.
Rumi
I have been so naughted in Thy Love's existence that my nonexistence is a thousand times sweeter than my existence
Rumi
The rose does best as a rose. Lilies make the best lilies. And look! You - the best you around!
Rumi
The undisciplined man doesn't wrong himself alone- he sets fire to the whole world.
Rumi
