More quotes by Rumi
How should Spring bring forth a garden on hard stone? Become earth, that you may grow flowers of many colors. For you have been heart-breaking rock. Once, for the sake of experiment, be earth!
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
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
To wander in the fields of flowers, pull the thorns from your heart.
Rumi
Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only appears in the roots.
Rumi
You run back and forth listening for unusual events, peering into the faces of travelers. Why are you looking at me like a madman? I have lost a friend. Please forgive me.
Rumi
Look as long as you can at the friend you love, no matter whether that friend is moving away from you or coming back toward you.
Rumi
The art of knowing is knowing what to ignore.
Rumi
Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you. Then you will see your own light as radiant as the full moon.
Rumi
Close the language-door, and open the love-window
Rumi
One day you will take me completely out of myself, I'll do what the angels cannot do. Your eyelash will write on my cheek the poem that hasn't been thought of.
Rumi
Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment. Cleverness is mere opinion. Bewilderment brings intuitive knowledge.
Rumi
I can heal a broken heart with a smile.
Rumi
Load the ship and set out. No one knows for certain whether the vessel will sink or reach the harbor. Cautious people say, 'I'll do nothing until I can be sure.' Merchants know better. If you do nothing, you lose. Don't be one of those merchants who wont risk the ocean.
Rumi
Let lovers be crazy, disgraceful and wild Those who fret about such things Aren’t in love.
Rumi
I sail with you on the ocean of my dreams to a far away distant Place of great beauty and tranquility. where suffering and pain do not exist, where we give praises for our joy and happiness, where our Love interwines with Love for all things.
Rumi
Love has come to rule and transform Stay awake, my heart, stay awake.
Rumi
There is only one search: wandering... no dogma and no heresy.
Rumi
Your task? To work with all the passion of your being to acquire an inner light.
Rumi
There are many ways to the Divine. I have chosen the ways of song, dance, and laughter.
Rumi
