More quotes by Rumi
If you want what visible reality can give, you are an employee. If you want the unseen world you are not living with your truth. Both wishes are foolish, but you'll be forgiven for forgetting that what you really want is loves confusing joy.
Rumi
Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to The King. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
Rumi
Finding faults is for those with tired minds.
Rumi
In our hearts there burns a fire... That burns all veils to their root and foundation When those veils have been burned away Then the heart will understand completely. Ancient love will unfold ever-fresh forms In the heart of the Spirit, In the core of the heart.
Rumi
Sometimes in order to help He makes us cry Happy the eye that sheds tears for His sake Fortunate the heart that burns for His sake Laughter always follow tears Blessed are those who understand Life blossoms wherever water flows Where tears are shed divine mercy is shown
Rumi
Birdsong brings relief to my longing. I am just as ecstatic as they are, but with nothing to say.
Rumi
Love is an open secret, the most obvious thing in the world and the most hidden, with no why to how it keeps its mystery.
Rumi
There is little one can say about love. It has to be lived, and it's always in motion.
Rumi
There cannot be self-restraint in the absence of desire: when there is no adversary, what avails thy courage? Hark, do not castrate thyself, do not become a monk: chastity depends on the existence of lust.
Rumi
What you have despised in yourself as a thorn opens into a rose.
Rumi
Who could be so lucky? Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.
Rumi
The day you were born, a ladder was set up to help you escape this world.
Rumi
Don't run away from grief, o’ soul/ Look for the remedy inside the pain/ because the rose came from the thorn/ and the ruby came from a stone.
Rumi
Each has to enter the nest made by the other imperfect bird.
Rumi
Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone's soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.
Rumi
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!
Rumi
Last night I begged the Wise One to tell me the secret of the world. Gently, gently, he whispered, Be quiet, the secret cannot be spoken, It is wrapped in silence.
Rumi
Lovers are patient and know that the moon needs time to become full.
Rumi
Listen . Keep silent . You are not gods mouthpiece. Try to be an ear.
Rumi
Cease looking for flowers! There blooms a garden in your own home. While you look for trinkets The treasure house awaits you in your own being.
Rumi
