More quotes by Rumi
Always search for your innermost nature in those you are with, as rose oil imbibes from roses.
Rumi
Physical existence is so cramped.We grow old and bent over like embryos.Nine months passesit is time to be born. The lamb wants to graze green daylight. There are ways of being born twice,of coming to where you fly,not individually like birds, but as the sun moves with his bride,sincerity.
Rumi
The only way to measure a lover is by the grandeur of the beloved.
Rumi
War, like children's fights, are meaningless, pitiless, and contemptible.
Rumi
Stop learning. Start knowing
Rumi
Live at the empty heart of paradox. I'll dance with you there, cheek to cheek.
Rumi
The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
Rumi
Flattery's fire is hidden. Its sweet taste is apparent, but the smoke is bound to come out at last.
Rumi
Throw off your tiredness. Let me show you one tiny spot of the beauty that can't be spoken.
Rumi
Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being.
Rumi
Whoever's calm and sensible is insane!
Rumi
How do I know who I am or where I am? How could a single wave locate itself in an ocean.
Rumi
Whenever Beauty looks, Love is also there Whenever beauty shows a rosy cheek Love lights Her fire from that flame. When beauty dwells in the dark folds of night Love comes and finds a heart entangled in tresses. Beauty and Love are as body and soul. Beauty is the mine, Love is the diamond.
Rumi
The heart has its own language. The heart knows a hundred thousand ways to speak.
Rumi
The Prophets accept all agony and trust it For the water has never feared the fire.
Rumi
The middle path is the way to wisdom
Rumi
There is a morning inside you waiting to burst open into light.
Rumi
There are many ways to the Divine. I have chosen the ways of song, dance, and laughter.
Rumi
The quieter we become, the more we can hear.
Rumi
A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly. Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe. What nine months of attention does for an embryo forty early mornings will do for your gradually growing wholeness
Rumi
