More quotes by Rumi
I was dead, then alive. Weeping, then laughing. The power of love came into me, and I became fierce like a lion, then tender like the evening star.
Rumi
The angel is free because of his knowledge, the beast because of his ignorance. Between the two remains the son of man to struggle.
Rumi
Your real country is where you're heading, not where you are.
Rumi
Whatever posessions and objects of its desires the lower self may obtain, it hangs on to them, refusing to let them go out of greed for more, or out of fear of poverty and need.
Rumi
Let your throat-song be clear and strong enough to make an emperor fall full-length suppliant, at the door.
Rumi
Go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen.
Rumi
I’ve been looking for a long, long time, for this thing called love, I’ve ridden comets across the sky, and I’ve looked below and above. Then one day I looked inside myself, and this is what I found, A golden sun residing there, beaming forth God’s light and sound.
Rumi
In love’s country, language doesn’t have its place. Love is mute.
Rumi
Moonlight floods the whole sky from horizon to horizon How much it can fill your room depends on its windows.
Rumi
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
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
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
Nothing is meaningful except surrendering to love. Do it.
Rumi
The lion who breaks the enemy's ranks is a minor hero compared to the lion who overcomes himself.
Rumi
There is only one search: wandering... no dogma and no heresy.
Rumi
I am so close, I may look distant.
Rumi
Actually, your soul and mine are the same. We appear and disappear with each other.
Rumi
If you # love love, look for yourself.
Rumi
How could you reach the pearl by only looking at the sea? If you seek the pearl, be a diver: the diver needs several qualities: he must trust his rope and his life to the Friend's hand, he must stop breathing, and he must jump.
Rumi
