More quotes by Rumi
I made an oath to myself: as long as I live as long as my soul remains in this body I won't deviate from the right way but later I looked to my left and then to my right and I saw our beloved everywhere how could I make a wrong turn?
Rumi
Whatever pearl you seek, look for the pearl within the pearl!
Rumi
Everything about yesterday has gone with yesterday. Today, it is needed to say new things.
Rumi
Intellect in its effort to explain Love got stuck in the mud like an ass. Love alone could explain love and loving.
Rumi
Passion makes the old medicine new: Passion lops off the bough of weariness. Passion is the elixir that renews: how can there be weariness when passion is present? Oh, don't sigh heavily from fatigue: seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
Work in the invisible world at least as hard as you do in the visible.
Rumi
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
Rumi
At every moment, Love's voice talks to us from left and from right. All we have to do is to know how to listen.
Rumi
Know then that the body is merely a garment. Go seek the wearer, not the cloak.
Rumi
Let lovers be crazy, disgraceful and wild Those who fret about such things Aren’t in love.
Rumi
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
Rumi
Nothing can help me but that beauty. There was a dawn I remember when my soul heard something from your soul. I drank water from your spring and felt the current take me.
Rumi
Sometimes the shadow stays next to the Light. Sometimes it disappears into the Light
Rumi
If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Rumi
For me to praise is interrupting praise.
Rumi
Every moment I shape my destiny with a chisel - I am the carpenter of my own soul.
Rumi
These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.
Rumi
There's a hidden sweetness in the stomach's emptiness. We are lutes, no more, no less. If the soundbox is stuffed full of anything, no music.... When you're full of food and drink, Satan sits where your spirit should.
Rumi
Stop, open up, surrender the beloved blind silence. Stay there until you see you're looking at the light with infinite eyes.
Rumi
If your heart isn't yet illumined Be awake always, be a seeker of the heart, Be at war continually with your carnal soul. But if your heart is already awakened, Sleep peacefully, sleep in the arms of Love
Rumi
