Close the language-door, and open the love-window
Rumi
A heart filled with love is like a phoenix that no cage can imprison.
Rumi
Only from the heart can you touch the sky.
Rumi
Though Destiny a hundred times waylays you,in the end it pitches a tent for you in Heaven. It is God's loving kindness to terrify you,in order to lead you to His Kingdom of safety.
Rumi
Be kind and honest, and harmful poisons will turn sweet inside you.
Rumi
Break your pitcher against a rock. We don't need any longer to haul pieces of the ocean around.
Rumi
Don't be the rider who gallops all nightand never sees the horse that is beneath him
Rumi
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.
Rumi
If your knowledge of fire has been turned to certainty by words alone, then seek to be cooked by the fire itself. Don't abide in borrowed certainty. There is no real certainty until you burn if you wish for this, sit down in the fire.
Rumi
In order to understand the dance one must be still. And in order to truly understand stillness one must dance.
Rumi
Listen my love, illumination is eternal. Now is always evolving. As there are billions of stars, there are billions of steps. As there are billions of souls, there are billions of ways to grow.
Rumi
Water, stories, the body, all the things we do, are mediums that hid and show what's hidden.
Rumi
Seek passion, seek passion, seek passion!
Rumi
The Heart that is not in love will fail the test.
Rumi
The lovers of God never run out of patience, for they know that time is needed for the crescent moon to become full.
Rumi
Body is not veiled from soul, neither soul from body, Yet no man hath ever seen a soul.
Rumi
Know that the outward form passes away, but the world of reality remains forever. How long will you play at loving the shape of the jug? Leave the jug go, seek the water!
Rumi
Oh sky, without me, do not change, Oh moon, without me, do not shine Oh earth, without me, do not grow, Oh time, without me, do not go. ...Oh, you cannot go, without me.
Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say. I don't plan it. When I'm outside the saying of it, I get very quiet and rarely speak at all.
Rumi
I used to read the myths of love Now I have become the mythical lover
Rumi
