The sweetness and delights of the resting-place are in proportion to the pain endured on the Journey. Only when you suffer the pangs and tribulations of exile will you truly enjoy your homecoming.

More quotes by Rumi
Pale sunlight, pale the wall. Love moves away. The light changes I need more grace than I thought.
Rumi
Those who are pure in heart achieve God-consciousness they are truly and actually aware of God at the center of their being (their heart). These sanctified individuals are said to be Possessors of the Heart.
Rumi
This discipline and rough treatment are a furnace to extract the silver from the dross. This testing purifies the gold by boiling the scum away.
Rumi
Drink from the presence of saints, not from those other jars.
Rumi
Even when tied in a thousand knots, the string is still but one.
Rumi
Then outwardly you are the small universe! Then inwardly you are the great universe.
Rumi
We can't find the truth listening to our own voice's echo. We can find ourselves only in someone's mirror
Rumi
Get yourself out of the way, and let Joy have more space.
Rumi
This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. Welcome and entertain them all!
Rumi
There goes a river dragging an ocean behind it.
Rumi
When someone critises or disagrees with you, a small ant of hatred and antagonism is born in your heart. If you do not squash that ant at once, it might grow into a snake, or even a dragon.
Rumi
I know you're tired but come, this is the way.
Rumi
Either give me more wine or leave me alone.
Rumi
Sorrows are the rags of old clothes and jackets that serve to cover, and then are taken off. That undressing, and the beautiful naked body underneath, is the sweetness that comes after grief.
Rumi
Give your life to the one who already owns your breath and your moments.
Rumi
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
LOVE and LOVER live in Eternity. Other desires are substitutes for that way of being.
Rumi
The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms yet, they testify to invisible love.
Rumi
The feelings trembled and flapped in his chest like a bird newly put in a cage.
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
