More quotes by Rumi
How can I know anything about the past or the future, when the light of the Beloved shines only Now.
Rumi
Every object, every being...is a jar full of delight.
Rumi
Do not sit long with a sad friend. When you go to a garden do you look at the weeds? Spend more time with the roses and jasmines.
Rumi
Stars burn clear all night till dawn. Do that yourself, and a spring will rise in the dark with water your deepest thirst is for.
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
Love isn't the work of the tender and the gentle Love is the work of wrestlers. The one who becomes a servant of lovers is really a fortunate sovereign. Don't ask anyone about Love ask Love about Love. Love is a cloud that scatters pearls.
Rumi
There is a path from me to you that I am constantly looking for.
Rumi
Oh, bird of my soul, fly away now, For I possess a hundred fortified towers.
Rumi
The feelings trembled and flapped in his chest like a bird newly put in a cage.
Rumi
The Past, the Future, O dear, is from you you should regard both these as one.
Rumi
The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities.
Rumi
This is enough was always true. We just haven't seen it.
Rumi
Everything in the universe is a pitcher brimming with wisdom and beauty.
Rumi
If thou has not seen the devil, look at thine own self.
Rumi
When you lose all sense of self the bonds of a thousands chains will vanish. Lose yourself completely, return to the root of the root of your own soul.
Rumi
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
Rumi
Love is a tree and lovers are its shade.
Rumi
This world's existence is one night long. There's a great lively gathering that night, but some people sleep through it.
Rumi
I was a tiny bug. Now a mountain. I was left behind. Now honored at the head. You healed my wounded hunger and anger, and made me a poet who sings about joy.
Rumi
Behead yourself!... Dissolve your whole body into Vision: become seeing, seeing, seeing!
Rumi
