More quotes by Rumi
Do you think I know what I'm doing? That for one breath or half-breath I belong to myself? As much as a pen knows what it's writing, or the ball can guess where it's going next.
Rumi
I learned that every mortal will taste death. But only some will taste life.
Rumi
The very center of your heart is where life begins. The most beautiful place on earth.
Rumi
The art of knowing is knowing what to ignore.
Rumi
You have forgotten the One who doesn't care about ownership, who doesn't try to turn a profit from every human exchange.
Rumi
Every object, every being...is a jar full of delight.
Rumi
Don't look for Love, look for the one looking for Love.
Rumi
I belong to the beloved. Have seen the two worlds as one and that one call to and know. ...First, Last, Outer, Inner, only that breath breathing. HUMAN BEING.
Rumi
Sometimes the shadow stays next to the Light. Sometimes it disappears into the Light
Rumi
You rave about the Holy Place (Masjid al-Haram) and say you've visited God's garden but where is your bunch of flowers? There is some merit in the suffering you have endured but what a pity you have not discovered the Makkah thats inside
Rumi
Any one in love will have no religion.
Rumi
Everything that you want, you are already that.
Rumi
Knock, And He'll open the door Vanish, And He'll make you shine like the sun Fall, And He'll raise you to the heavens Become nothing, And He'll turn you into everything.
Rumi
At every instant and from every side, resounds the call of Love: We are going to sky, who wants to come with us? We have gone to Heaven, we have been the friends of the angels, And now we will go back there, for there is our country.
Rumi
What a piece of bread looks like depends on whether you are hungry or not.
Rumi
There comes a holy and transparent time when every touch of beauty opens the heart to tears. This is the time the Beloved of heaven is brought tenderly on earth. This is the time of the opening of the ROSE.
Rumi
My lips got lost on the way to the kiss - that's how drunk I was.
Rumi
Be an empty page, untouched by words.
Rumi
When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.
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
