The spirit is so near that you can't see it! But reach for it... don't be a jar, full of water, whose rim is always dry. Don't be the rider who gallops all night and never sees the horse that is beneath him.
Rumi

Rumi
Through love all that is bitter will be sweet.
Rumi
Beauty is the garden scent of roses, murmuring water flowing gently...Can words describe the indescribable?
Rumi
To Love is to be God. Never will a Lover's chest feel any sorrow. Never will a Lover's robe be touched by mortals. Never will a Lover's body be found buried in the earth. To Love is to be God.
Rumi
If I Separated Myself From You . . . I Would Turn Entirely Thorn!

If God said, 'Rumi pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,' there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, nor any act, I would not bow to.
Rumi
He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi

Rise up nimbly and go on your strange journey!
Rumi
I lost my hat while gazing at the moon, and then I lost my mind.
Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
Every object, every being...is a jar full of delight.
Rumi
Let the beauty we love do what we do.
Rumi
Love is the water of life, jump into this water.
Rumi
Wherever you stand, be the soul of that place.
Rumi
The satiated person and the hungry one do not see the same thing when they look upon a loaf of bread.
Rumi
The heart is cooking a pot of food for you. Be patient until it is cooked
Rumi
My heart is so small it's almost invisible. How can You place such big sorrows in it? Look, He answered, your eyes are even smaller, yet they behold the world.
Rumi
The beginning of pride and hatred lies in worldly desire, and the strength of your desire if from habit. When an evil tendency becomes confirmed by habit, rage is triggered when anyone restrains you.
Rumi
You left and I cried tears of blood. My sorrow grows. Its not just that You left. But when You left my eyes went with You. Now, how will I cry?
Rumi
