The ground submits to the sky and suffers whatever comes. Tell me, is the Earth worse for giving in like that?

More quotes by Rumi
We are born of love. Love is our mother.
Rumi
Love is the whole thing. We are only pieces.
Rumi
Someone who goes with a half a loaf of bread to a small place that fits like a nest around him, someone who wants no more, who is not himself longed for by anyone else. He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
Rumi
Sometimes in order to help He makes us cry Happy the eye that sheds tears for His sake Fortunate the heart that burns for His sake Laughter always follow tears Blessed are those who understand Life blossoms wherever water flows Where tears are shed divine mercy is shown
Rumi
If there were no way into God, I would not have lain in the grave of this body so long.
Rumi
When someone beats a rug, the blows are not against the rug, but against the dust in it.
Rumi
Whoever finds love beneath hurt and grief disappears into emptiness with a thousand new disguises
Rumi
What hurts the soul? To live without tasting the water of its own essence.
Rumi
Study me as much as you like, you will not know me, for I differ in a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.
Rumi
There’s a morning when presence comes over your soul. You sing like a rooster in your earth-colored shape. Your heart hears and, no longer frantic, begins to dance.
Rumi
The meaning of poetry has no sureness of direction is like the sling, it is not under control.
Rumi
When something goes wrong, accuse yourself first. Even the wisdom of Plato or Solomon can wobble and go blind
Rumi
Whenever we manage to love without expectations, calculations, negotiations, we are indeed in heaven.
Rumi
Love is the vital core of the soul. And of all you see, only love is infinite.
Rumi
You have escaped the cage. Your wings are stretched out. Now fly.
Rumi
You could string a hundred endless days together, My soul would find no comfort from this pain. You laugh at my tale? You may be educated But you haven’t learned to love till you’re insane
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
As you live Deeper in the Heart, the Mirror gets clearer and cleaner.
Rumi
Whether you love God or you love a human being, if you love enough you will come into the presence of Love itself.
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
